About Sun Desktop Access Clients

About Sun Desktop Access Clients

The Sun Desktop Access Client is a software application that runs on common client operating systems and provides the ability to connect to a desktop session running on a Sun Ray server. Users can switch between their Sun Ray DTU and any supported Desktop Access Client enabled PC without using smart cards.

In other words, a user can install and run the Sun Desktop Access Client instead of relying only on a Sun Ray Desktop Unit (DTU) for session access. For example, a user could connect to the same Sun Ray session from a PC laptop or desktop at home and a Sun Ray DTU at the office.

Note
Throughout the SRS documentation, the term "Sun Ray DTU" is used to refer to the hardware-based thin client. With the addition of the Sun Desktop Access Client, a majority of the Sun Ray DTU references also apply to the new Sun Desktop Access Clients.  As the documentation evolves, the generic term "client" will refer to all clients supported by the Sun Ray system, where appropriate.

Product Requirements

The Sun Desktop Access Client requires the usage of at least Sun Ray Server Software 4.2.

Note
You must enable access to Sun Desktop Access Clients before you can use them. See How to Enable Access for Sun Desktop Access Clients for details.
