Sun Rays and Windows

In commercial environments, Sun Rays are most commonly deployed as a thin client to access a Windows desktop using the SRSS built-in RDP client uttsc. The desktop can be a Terminal Server session or a Virtual Machine (VDI). This setup is flexible and works well in many environments because the intermediate Sun Ray Server layer is transparent to the Windows desktop. At the same time however, this transparency can also become an issue for software that is location dependent. If location dependent information needs to be added it is possible to extend the functionality of the Sun Ray software with additional custom scripts. The Sun Ray Wiki offers a "Follow Me Printing" setup as an example, e.g. a user always gets the nearest printer as default printer when going from room-to-room or location-to-location, also inside their Windows session. It is relatively easy for an administrator to extend and add to this functionality as required.

Famous quotes containing the words sun, rays and/or windows:

    You ask if there is no doctrine of sorrow in my philosophy. Of acute sorrow I suppose that I know comparatively little. My saddest and most genuine sorrows are apt to be but transient regrets. The place of sorrow is supplied, perchance, by a certain hard and proportionately barren indifference. I am of kin to the sod, and partake of its dull patience,—in winter expecting the sun of spring.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    The rays which stream through the shutter will be no longer remembered when the shutter is wholly removed.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Try speaking. Say ‘Hello!’”
    “Hello. Hello.”
    “What do you hear?”
    “I hear an empty room—
    You know it sounds that way. And yes, I hear
    I think I hear a clock and windows rattling....”
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
