Table 8-7. View Client Configuration Template: Security Settings (Continued)
Setting Computer User Description
Display option to Log in as
current user
X X Determines whether the Log in as current user check
box is visible on the View Client connection dialog box.
When the check box is visible, users can select or
deselect it and override its default value. When the
check box is hidden, users cannot override its default
value from the View Client connection dialog box.
You can specify the default value for the Log in as
current user check box by using the policy setting
Default value of the 'Log in as current
user' checkbox.
This setting is enabled by default.
Enable jump list integration
X Determines whether a jump list appears in the View
Client icon on the taskbar of Windows 7 and later
systems. The jump list lets users connect to recent View
Connection Server instances and View desktops.
If View Client is shared, you might not want users to
see the names of recent desktops. You can disable the
jump list by disabling this setting.
This setting is enabled by default.
Enable Single Sign-On for
smart card authentication
X Determines whether single sign-on is enabled for smart
card authentication. When single sign-on is enabled,
View Client stores the encrypted smart card PIN in
temporary memory before submitting it to View
Connection Server. When single sign-on is disabled,
View Client does not display a custom PIN dialog.
Ignore bad SSL certificate
date received from the
server
X Determines whether errors that are associated with
invalid server certificate dates are ignored. These errors
occur when a server sends a certificate with a date that
has passed.
Ignore certificate
revocation problems
X Determines whether errors that are associated with a
revoked server certificate are ignored. These errors
occur when the server sends a certificate that has been
revoked and when the client cannot verify a certificate's
revocation status.
This setting is disabled by default.
Ignore incorrect SSL
certificate common name
(host name field)
X Determines whether errors that are associated with
incorrect server certificate common names are ignored.
These errors occur when the common name on the
certificate does not match the hostname of the server
that sends it.
Ignore incorrect usage
problems
X Determines whether errors that are associated with
incorrect usage of a server certificate are ignored. These
errors occur when the server sends a certificate that is
intended for a purpose other than verifying the identity
of the sender and encrypting server communications.
Ignore unknown certificate
authority problems
X Determines whether errors that are associated with an
unknown Certificate Authority (CA) on the server
certificate are ignored. These errors occur when the
server sends a certificate that is signed by an untrusted
third-party CA.
