Connecting using the NX client

The setup wizard will take you directly to the connection window. You can also get to this screen after having set up your session initially by clicking on the icon you created on the your desktop, or by choosing the ``NX Client'' from the Programs Menu.

  1. Pick the session profile you want to use for connection. We will assume here that it is the session you configured in Section 1.5. Fill in the required other information:
      Login:    your VirtualRDC login name
      Password: your VirtualRDC password

  2. Click on Login.
  3. You will be connected, and will see your desktop (Figure 10) (if not, see the FAQ on [*]). You can now interact with the VirtualRDC.

  4. To disconnect, use either the ``Logout'' option under the ``N'' (for Novell) logo (Figure 12) or by clicking on ``x'' in the top-right corner of your NX window frame (Figure 11). You will be prompted in either case if you want to close/logout of the session.
