Table 2‑4. Horizon Client Command-Line Options and Configuration File Keys (Continued)
Configuration Key Command-Line Option Description
view.sendCtrlAltInsToVM
None (Available if you use the VMware Blast or PCoIP
display protocol) When set to "TRUE", sends the key
combination Ctrl+Alt+Ins to the virtual desktop rather
than sending Ctrl+Alt+Del. Default is "FALSE".
NOTE To use this feature, you must also set the agent-
side GPO policy called "Use alternate key for sending
Secure Attention Sequence," available in the pcoip.adm
template. See the topic called "View PCoIP Session
Variables for the Keyboard" in the "Configuring
Policies" chapter of the Setting Up Desktop and
Application Pools in View document.
This option has a lower priority than the setting in
the /etc/vmware/view-keycombos-config file.
view.sslCipherString --sslCipherString=
Configures the cipher list to restrict the use of certain
cryptographic algorithms before establishing an
encrypted SSL connection.
For a list of cipher strings, see
http://www.openssl.org/docs/apps/ciphers.html .
The default for Horizon Client is "!aNULL:kECDH
+AES:ECDH+AES:RSA+AES:@STRENGTH".
view.sslProtocolString --sslProtocolString=
Configures the cipher list to restrict the use of certain
cryptographic protocols before establishing an
encrypted SSL connection.
The supported protocols are SSLv3/SSLv3.0,
TLSv1.0/TLSv1, TLSv1.1, and TLSv1.2. The cipher list
consists of one or more protocol strings separated by
colons. The strings are not case-sensitive.
The default is "TLSv1.0:TLSv1.1:TLSv1.2".
view.sslVerificationMode
None Sets the server certificate verification mode.
Specify "1" to reject connections when the certificate
fails any of the verification checks, "2" to warn but
allow connections that use a self-signed certificate, or
"3" to allow unverifiable connections. If you specify
"3" no verification checks are performed. Default is "2".
view.usbAutoConnectAtStartup —-usbAutoConnectAtStartUp=
Automatically connects USB devices when
Horizon Client starts.
Specify "TRUE" or "FALSE". Default is "TRUE".
view.usbAutoConnectOnInsert -—usbAutoConnectOnInsert=

device is inserted.
Specify "TRUE" or "FALSE". Default is "TRUE".
view.xfreerdpOptions --xfreerdpOptions=

protocol) Specifies command-line options to forward to
the xfreerdp program. For information about
xfreerdp options, see the xfreerdp documentation.
