SSO is implemented as an optional component that you can select when you install the View Agent on a desktop

source. This feature includes the Graphical Identification and Authentication (GINA) dynamic-link library for

Windows XP and a credential provider dynamic-link library for Windows Vista.

Using Multiple Monitors with a View Desktop

Regardless of the display protocol, you can use multiple monitors with a View desktop.

If you use PCoIP, the display protocol from VMware, you can adjust the display resolution and rotation

separately for each monitor. PCoIP allows a true multiple-monitor session rather than a span mode session.

A span mode remote session is actually a single-monitor session. The monitors must be the same size and

resolution, and the monitor layout must fit within a bounding box. If you maximize an application window,

the window spans across all monitors.

In a true multiple-monitor session, monitors can have different resolutions and sizes, and a monitor can be

pivoted. If you maximize an application window, the window expands to the full screen of only the monitor

that contains it.

This feature has the following limitations:

The maximum number of monitors that you can use to display a View desktop is 10 if you use the RDP

display protocol and 4 if you use PCoIP.

If you use Microsoft RDP display protocol, you must have Microsoft Remote Desktop Connection (RDC)

6.0 or higher installed in the View desktop.

If you use a View desktop in local mode, no remote display protocol is used. You can use multiple monitors

in span mode.
