Connect to a Remote Desktop or Application
Use your Active Directory credentials to connect to the remote desktops and applications that you are
authorized to use.
Prerequisites
n
Obtain login credentials, such as an Active Directory user name and password, RSA SecurID user
name and passcode, or RADIUS authentication user name and passcode.
n
Obtain the NETBIOS domain name for logging in. For example, you might use mycompany rather than
mycompany.com.
Procedure
1 In the Login dialog box, if you are prompted for RSA SecurID credentials or RADIUS authentication
credentials, enter the user name and passcode, and click Login.
The passcode might include both a PIN and the generated number on the token.
2 If you are prompted a second time for RSA SecurID credentials or RADIUS authentication
credentials, enter the next generated number on the token.
Do not enter your PIN and do not enter the same generated number entered previously. If necessary,
wait until a new number is generated.
If this step is required, it is required only when you mistype the first passcode or when configuration
settings in the RSA server change.
