Tip
While it can be used in environments without central configuration for basic
connectivity needs, Wyse Enhanced Ubuntu Linux is designed to be centrally
managed and configured using INI files. In general, it is recommended that
you use central configuration to enable you to automatically push any
desired default configuration to all supported thin clients in your environment
(see
"Central Configuration: Automating Configurations").
Logging In
Tip
On your initial connection to central configuration it is recommended that you
connect using a “wired connection” (plug in the network-connected ethernet
cable to your thin client before starting the thin client) to obtain the
configurations desired by the administrator (connections, system settings,
required certificates and so on). This “wired connection” will also provide any
wireless configurations provided by the administrator through the INI files.
If you must initially connect to central configuration through wireless, use the
Edit Wireless Connection dialog box (click System Settings > Network
Connections > Wireless tab > Add) to create a wireless connection where
you can enter the SSID and encryption configurations required/set up by the
network administrator (see "Network Connections").
After your thin client starts, Administrators can log in to your Home screen using the
default user name admin and the default case-sensitive password admin. It is highly
recommended that you change the default password by using the User Administration
dialog box in System Settings (see "User Administration").
Note that Thinuser users can use the default user name thinuser and the default
case-sensitive password thinuser; Guest users can use default user name guest and do
not need a password.
