System information

Host Operation
Panel will attempt to use the credentials that were used to log into the console session; if
this is disabled (either by deselecting this option under Simple Password Configuration
on the Security tab or disabling the Access Host Tray Icon permission on the Admin
Security tab for Windows Authentication Configuration), the Host Control Panel user will
be asked to authenticate directly to the Root Host for access.
If the Host Control Panel is launched inside a Terminal Services session with a Host
instance running, two different sets of credentials may be required: First, the Host Control
Panel user will need to present credentials to authenticate to the Gateway; if accepted,
the user will then need to present credentials to authenticate to the Host instance (similar
to Master connecting through the Gateway to a Host configured for Windows
Authentication). If the credentials used to authenticate to the Gateway are also
acceptable by the Host instance (which would be the case if the Gateway and the
terminal server are in the same domain), then only one set of credentials will be needed.
However, if they are not acceptable (i.e. the Gateway and terminal server are in different
domains), then Host Control Panel user will be asked to present a second set of
credentials specifically for authenticating to the Host instance.
In general, the configuration options for Host instance are similar to those available for
installed Host application. Please refer to specific tabs below to see any differences.
