HP Remote Graphics Software 5.4.8 User Guide

Remote Computer, and two local users who are viewing the primary user’s desktop session on the
Remote Computer.

The one-to-many configuration is ideal for collaboration because each user can interact with the
applications running on the Remote Computer (subject to RGS policies which arbitrate which user is
able to provide keyboard and mouse inputs to the Remote Computer at any particular time). As one
user interacts with the applications on the Remote Computer, all other users can view these interactions.
See
Collaborating on page 114, for details.
In the previous example, it was assumed that the primary user and the local users were all physically
separate from the Remote Computer. This, however, doesn’t have to be the case. RGS works equally
well sharing between workstations (see
Figure 2-8 Sharing between workstations on page 20).
Figure 2-8 Sharing between workstations
In Figure 2-8 Sharing between workstations on page 20, the primary user is directly logged into the
Remote Computer using its attached keyboard, mouse and monitor. In other words, the primary user is
physically present at the Remote Computer, while local user 1 and local user 2 are physically separate
