4 Configuring clients Beyond the basic setup described in Getting started on page 2, there are many additional options available for each connection type. These options provide many unique system configurations and make sure that the client can be customized for most environments.
Table 4-1 Main control panel options (User Mode) (continued) Menu option Description Administrator/User Mode Switch Lets authorized administrators access the Administrator Mode control panel menus. NOTE: Before using this option, be sure to set up a password for the Administrator Mode control panel menus. Language Lets you display the client interface in a different language. Keyboard Layout Lets you change the keyboard layout to accommodate the language used by the keyboard.
Table 4-2 Additional control panel options (User Mode) (continued) Menu option Description ● VPN settings ● HP Velocity settings ● Wireless settings ◦ Duplex settings ◦ Connection method NOTE: Many wireless networks have security that requires a different authentication and either a password or key. Printer Mapping Lets you set up a printer and share it across the network.
Additional control panel options (Administrator Mode) The additional options available in Administrator Mode under Additional Configuration are divided into four categories: ● Peripherals ● Setup ● Management ● Advanced The following tables describe the options available in each category.
Table 4-4 Additional control panel options (Administrator Mode)—Peripherals (continued) Menu option Description Sound Lets you set up the audio input and playback settings for your client. USB Manager Lets you configure the redirection options for USB devices.
Table 4-6 Additional administrator control panel options—Management (continued) Menu option Description Virtual Network Computing (VNC) is a remote control program that allows a user to view the desktop of a remote machine and control it with a local mouse and keyboard, as if they were sitting in front of that computer.
Using Kiosk Mode with RDP By default, only the server hostname is required to connect. The login screen identifies and authenticates the user. Additional login information can be set in the Connection Settings dialog box available in Administrator Mode. To enable Kiosk Mode, where the client performs an automatic login to the remote desktop on boot using predefined user credentials, do the following: 1. In Administrator Mode, click 2. Click Edit Default Connection. 3.
audio syncing. MMR is enabled by default. A client will negotiate with any RDP server it contacts, and if MMR is available, it will be used. MMR also uses an advanced codec detection scheme that identifies whether the client supports the codec being requested by the remote host before attempting to redirect it. The result is that only supported codecs will be redirected and all unsupported codecs fall back to server-side rendering.
device, as if it were plugged in locally. Standard Windows drivers support the device in the remote session, and all device types are supported without requiring additional drivers on the client. Not all devices default to USB redirection. For example, USB keyboards, mice, and other input devices usually are not set to be redirected, as the remote session expects input to come from the client. Some devices such as mass storage, printers, and audio devices use additional options for redirection.
spooler, and the RDP client automatically sets up a remote printer that sends print spooling commands through a virtual channel from the remote host to the client. This method requires both that the printer be configured on the client and a Windows driver be specified on the client because the RDP client needs to specify to the remote host which driver to use for the remote printer. This Windows driver must match the driver that the printer would use when locally attached to a Windows operating system.
The additional options described in the following table can be configured via the check boxes on the Options tab. Table 4-9 General connection options Connection option Description Enable Motion Events Enabled by default. Sends a message to the RDP server every time the pointing device is moved. If this is disabled, “hover over” options, such as tooltips, often fail to appear. Enable Data Compression Enabled by default.

Ping the client server by doing the following: a. On the client toolbar, click to access the About this client screen, and then click on the Net Tools tab. b.
Troubleshooting firmware corruption If the client beeps two times after it is powered on or does not appear to boot, then the device firmware may be corrupt. It is possible to resolve this by downloading the client image from http://www.hp.com, copying the image to a removable USB flash drive, and then booting the client from that flash drive. Reimaging client device firmware 1. Download the image from http://www.hp.com. 2. Unpack the image to the path C:\USBBoot. 3. Format a USB flash drive. 4.
controller, then make sure the time of the client is in sync with the domain controller and use the full domain name (for example, domain_name.com) when entering the Citrix login credentials. For more information, see Citrix documentation. Using system diagnostics to troubleshoot System diagnostics take a snapshot of the client that can be used to help solve issues without physical access to the client.

Table 5-1 Commands folder files File Description demidecode.txt This file contains information on the system BIOS and graphics. dpkg_--list.txt This file lists the packages installed at the time system diagnostics were run. ps_-ef.txt This file lists the active processes at the time system diagnostics were run. Viewing files in the /var/log folder The useful file in the /var/log folder is Xorg.0.
6 HP Smart Zero Client Services Clients will detect an update server automatically and configure themselves on the first boot. This simplifies device installation and maintenance. The diagram below describes how the clients communicate with the server when receiving profiles and client update kits.
Preparing to install HP Smart Zero Client Services Before installing HP Smart Zero Client Services, verify the configuration and installation status of the following components: ● Internet Information Services (IIS) ● .NET Framework 3.5 For information about installing or enabling these components on the operating system that you are using for the server, go to http://www.microsoft.com. Downloading and installing HP Smart Zero Client Services To download and install HP Smart Zero Client Services: 1.
7 Using the Profile Editor HP Smart Zero Client Services contains the Profile Editor, which allows administrators to create client profiles and upload them to the Automatic Update server. The client profile contains connection information, settings, and files that the clients download and use in the self-configuration process.
● Client software versions compatible with your hardware ● Optional client kits that provide additional registry settings To set up the client profile platform: 1. In the Platform pane, under Smart Zero Client versions > OS Build ID, select an OS Build ID. TIP: Be sure to create a different profile for each hardware type. NOTE: If a client kit is installed, the additional registry settings are automatically displayed in the client kit box and the Registry pane. 2. When complete, click Next.
Adding files to a client profile Use the Files link in the Profile Editor to access the Additional Configuration Files pane, which can be used to add configuration files to be automatically installed on the client when the profile is installed.
4. Click Save to finish adding the certificate to the client profile. 5. After installing the client profile, use the Certificate Manager to confirm that the certificate was properly imported. Installing Citrix certificates on HP Smart Zero Core 4.1.0 and earlier versions HP Smart Zero Core 4.1.0 and earlier versions do not have the Certificate Manager add-on, and the only certificate store supported in the Profile Editor is the Citrix certificate store.
Obtaining the printer baud rate Before configuring printer ports, obtain the printer's baud rate. If available, check the printer's documentation before going further. If it is not available, follow these steps: 1. For most printers, press and hold the Feed button while turning the device on. 2. After a few seconds, release the Feed button. This allows the printer to enter a test mode and print the required information.
7. If prompted to keep the existing driver and it is known to work, keep it, and then click Next. 8. Assign a name to the printer. To use it as the default printer, select Yes, and then click Next. 9. To share the printer, select Share name and assign it a share name. Otherwise, click Next. 10. On the next page, you may request a test print. HP recommends this because it will verify the printer setup is correct. If it is not set up properly, review the settings and try again.
8 Using Automatic Intelligence This section includes the following topics: ● Viewing the Automatic Update website ● Creating an Automatic Update profile ● Updating clients ● Using HP Intelligent Delivery Service ● Using HP Device Manager Viewing the Automatic Update website 1. On the server desktop, select Start > Control Panel, and then click Administrative Tools. 2. Double-click Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager. 3.
● Using the manual update method Using the broadcast update method To do a broadcast update, plug the client into the same network as the update server. A broadcast update relies on HP Smart Zero Client Services, which works with IIS to automatically push updates to the client. NOTE: Broadcast updates work only if the client is on the same subnet as the server. TIP: To verify that the broadcast updates are working, run the Profile Editor and make some changes.
Using the DNS alias update method During system startup, Automatic Update attempts to resolve the DNS alias auto-update. If that host name resolves, it attempts to check for updates at http://auto-update:18287. This update method enables clients to access a single update server across the entire domain, thus simplifying management for deployments with many subnets and DHCP servers.
Using HP Intelligent Delivery Service How HP Intelligent Delivery Service works The Windows service listens for broadcasts from clients on a high-level output. When a broadcast is received, HP Intelligent Delivery Service responds with the URL of the Automatic Intelligence server, which the client uses to check for updates. Starting, stopping, and pausing HP Intelligent Delivery Service 1. On the server desktop, select Start > Administrative Tools > Server Manager. 2.
