Autoconnect to a Remote Desktop

You can configure a server to automatically open a remote desktop when you connect to the server.

If you are entitled to only one remote desktop on a server, Horizon Client opens that desktop when you connect to the server.

Note

You cannot configure a server to automatically open a remote application.

Prerequisites

Obtain credentials to connect to the server, such as a user name and password, RSA SecurID user name and passcode, RADIUS authentication user name and passcode, or smart card personal identification number (PIN).

Procedure

1	On the Horizon Client Home window, double-click the server icon.
2	If prompted, supply your credentials.
3	Click the Settings button (gear icon) in the upper right corner of the desktop and application selection window.
4	Select a desktop pool in the left pane of the Settings dialog box.
5	Select Autoconnect to this desktop.
6	Close the Settings dialog box to save your changes.

The next time you connect to the server, Horizon Client automatically opens the remote desktop.
