Table 34. VMware Horizon Client Configuration Template: Scripting Definitions (Continued)
Setting Description
Disable 3rd-party Terminal Services
plugins
Determines whether VMware Horizon Client checks third-party
Terminal Services plugins that are installed as normal RDP plugins. If
you do not configure this setting,VMware Horizon Client checks third-
party plugins by default. This setting does not affect View-specific
plugins, such as USB redirection.
Locked Guest Size
Specifies the screen resolution of the remote desktop if the display is
used on one monitor. That is, this setting does not work if you set the
remote desktop display to All Monitors.
After you enable the setting, remote desktop autofit functionality is
disabled. The minimum screen size is 640x480. The maximum screen
size is 4096x4096. This setting applies only to PCoIP connections and
does not apply to RDP connections.
IMPORTANT As a best practice, do not set the resolution higher than the
maximum resolution supported for the remote desktop, which is set in
View Administrator:
n
If 3D is enabled, up to 2 monitors are supported at a resolution of up
to 1920x1200.
n
If 3D is not enabled, up to 4 monitors are supported at a resolution
of up to 2560x1600.
In practice, this client-side setting will be ignored if it is set to a higher
resolution than is possible, given operating system version, amount of
vRAM, and color depth of the remote desktop. For example, if the
resolution for the desktop is set to 1920x1200 in View Administrator, the
resolution shown on the client might not be higher than 1920x1200,
depending on the capabilities of the remote desktop.
Logon DomainName
Specifies the NetBIOS domain that Horizon Client uses during login.
Logon Password
Specifies the password that Horizon Client uses during login. The
password is stored in plain text by Active Directory. For improved
security, it is recommended that you do not specify this setting. Users
can enter the password interactively.
Logon UserName
Specifies the password that Horizon Client uses during login. The
password is stored in plain text by Active Directory.
Server URL
Specifies the URL that Horizon Client uses during login, for example,
https://view1.example.com.
Suppress error messages (when fully
scripted only)
Determines whether Horizon Client error messages are hidden during
login.
This setting applies only when the login process is fully scripted, for
example, when all the required login information is prepopulated
through policy.
If the login fails because of incorrect login information, the user is not
notified and the Horizon Client process is terminated.
Security Settings for Client GPOs
Security settings include options regarding security certificate, login credentials, and the single sign-on
feature.
The following table describes the security settings in the Horizon Client Configuration ADM template file.
This table shows whether the settings include both Computer Configuration and User Configuration
settings or Computer Configuration settings only. For the security settings that include both types, the User
Configuration setting overrides the equivalent Computer Configuration setting.
