Configuring the user acceptance window
About this task
When user acceptance is enabled for remote control sessions, an acceptance window is displayed
on the target system when the session is requested. The target user can use this window to accept or
refuse the session. This window is displayed with standard text that is included with the product.
You can also configure this text by using the Configure session dialog
feature to change the content of the user acceptance window to your own requirements. You can
display a specific icon, set a default locale, and create a specific customization for selected
locales to change the window title, and display customized text if required. For each of the locales
that are listed in the Configure Target session acceptance dialog utility
there is a set of translated standard text messages. However, if you create a customized locale, the
text that is displayed is determined by which type of text is defined, as shown in the following
table.
Target locale - customized text is defined | Default locale - customized text is defined | Target locale - standard text is defined | Resulting Text is: |
---|---|---|---|
√ | √ | √ | Target locale - customized text |
√ | √ | Default locale - customized text | |
√ | Target locale - standard text | ||
Standard US-English |
Note: This process is applied to each of the customizable text options separately, that is the
Title, Paragraph 1 and Paragraph
2. It is possible to display both custom and standard text. For example, select a locale
to customize, type in customized text forParagraph 1 and
Paragraph 2 and leave the window title field blank. The acceptance window, for a target
that is configured for this locale, displays the standard window title and the customized
Paragraph 1 and Paragraph 2 text.
