9. RUNNING THE WINDOWS CE CLIENT
The Windows CE Client is a
lightweight application that provides seamless integration with the native CE
device's environment. To run the Windows CE Client, devices must have TCP/IP
as a network protocol.
9.1
Installing the Windows CE Client
Once the Windows CE Client has been installed, you can log on to a RASS
Server from the Start menu, from a desktop shortcut, or directly from the
RASS executable.
The
Windows CE install program attempts to delete RASS.CAB at the end of
installation. As such, we recommended setting the RASS.CAB file permission to
read-only before installing it on the client device.
To install the Windows CE Client with
.CAB file support
1.
Start Internet Explorer.
2. In the Address box, type http:// followed by the server name and RASS
logon page. For example, http://server/logon.html
3. Click Windows CE Client.
4. Determine which processor your Windows CE device is using and download the
appropriate .CAB file ( ARMV4, ARMV4I or X86).
5. Double-click the .CAB file.
The
Windows CE Client can be installed manually by launching RASS.CAB from
the corresponding CPU folder on the client device. For example, Clients\CE\X86\RASS.CAB
To
install the Windows CE Client on devices without .CAB file support
1. Locate the following files from the appropriate CPU folder in
Clients\CE\CPU\Programs (for
example, Clients\CE\X86\Programs\*.*):
RASS.exe
clipc.dll
cs.dll
dc.dll
filec.dll
pbru.dll
sc.dll
scres.dll
sndc.dll
printc.dll
upc.dll
2. Copy
these files to a common directory on the client device. (For example,
copy Clients\CE\X86\Programs\*.* to YourCEDevice\RASS\)
3. In
the directory created in step 2, create a subdirectory named kbd. Copy
any desired keyboard mapping file(s) from Clients\CE\kbd to this new
directory. (For example, copy Clients\CE\X86\Programs\fr_FR.kbm to
YourCEDevice\RASS\kbd\.)
9.2 Running the Windows CE Client from the Start Menu
Users running CE devices with taskbar support can run the Windows CE Client
from the Start menu.

user name in the User name box.
• Your network
password in the Password box.
9.3
Running the Windows CE Client from a Shortcut
On Windows
CE devices that support desktop shortcuts, a Windows shortcut named RASS
Client is created during installation of the Windows CE Client. This
shortcut launches the Program Window.
To
run the Windows CE Client from a shortcut
1.
Double-click the RASS Client shortcut.
2. Type
your server address in the Connection dialog.
3. When the
Logon dialog appears, type the following information:
• Your network user name in the User
name box.
•
Your network password in the Password box.
9.4
Running the Windows CE Client from the RASS Executable
Users with
CE devices that do not support the shortcut or start menu launching options
can run RASS directly from the RASS client executable.
To run
the Windows CE Client
1. Run RASS.exe
on the client device.
2. Type the
server address in the Connection
dialog and click Connect.
3. When the
Logon dialog appears, type the
following information:
• Your network user name in the User
name box.
•
Your network password in the Password box.
9.5
Using Command-line Arguments
If a
shortcut for RASS.exe can be created on the CE device's desktop,
command-line arguments can be used to expedite the logon process. For
example, the command-line arguments -a allows users to directly launch an
application. Command-line arguments can also be used to pass on application
specific startup parameters and to enable compression.
To
run RASS using command-line arguments
1. Right-click
on the RASS shortcut and click Properties.
2. In
the Shortcut tab, place your cursor in the Target edit box and append any of the following command-line
arguments after the quote ("):

10.4 Using the Pocket PC Client
The Pocket PC has several buttons and scrollbars based upon the screen size
selected in the Connection dialog. If the screen size selected is
larger than the actual screen of the Pocket PC device, horizontal and
vertical scroll bars will appear on the right and bottom of the RASS window.
You can manually move these scroll bars to view different portions of the
RASS screen.
There are 5 pan buttons located at the
bottom of the Pocket PC screen. These buttons allow you to quickly scroll to the
four corners and center of the RASS screen. There are also 4 zoom buttons located at the
bottom of the device's screen. These buttons allow you to zoom-in, zoom-out,
fit to screen, and view 100%.

11. GENERAL NOTES
11.1 User name and Password
In the Logon dialog, type your network user name and password, or a user
name and password that has been set up for you on the RASS Server. See your
system administrator for more information.
11.2
Server Address
In the Connection dialog, type the host name
of the RASS Server. If your client doesn't recognize Windows host names, you
can type the IP Address of the RASS Server instead.
11.3
User Authentication
The RASS
Server first tries to authenticate users on the local machine, followed by
the local machine's domain, and lastly on trusted domains. You can override
this default behavior and specify a specific domain by typing the domain name
followed by a backslash and your network user name in the User name box of the Logon dialog. For example,
NORTH\johnw.
11.4
Client File Access
RASS allows
users to access files stored on the client computer and to save files
locally. Client drives are designated with a Client prefix. For example,
Client A (J:), Client C (K:). To open or save a file locally, select the
desired local drive from the drop-down menu of the Open or Save As dialog
box. See your system administrator for more information.
11.5
Client Clipboard
RASS allows
client and server-based applications to exchange information using the
clipboard. You can cut and copy information from applications running on your
client machine and paste it into applications running on a RASS Server, and
vice versa. See your system administrator for more information.
11.6
Client Printing
RASS
provides access to client-side printers for users running all clients except
the Pocket PC Client and the unsigned version of the Java Client. Depending
on the server configuration, RASS will automatically detect your printer
information once you have logged on to RASS. If the RASS Server is not set to
automatically configure client printers or is unable to locate your printer
driver, you can manually configure a printer driver using the Program
Window's Client Printer Wizard. Access the Client Printer Wizard by clicking
File | Printers | Configure Client Printer.
11.7 Session Reconnect
Session
reconnect allows sessions to be maintained on a RASS Server without a client
connection. If your connection to the server is lost, intentionally or unintentionally,
your session and applications remain running on the RASS Server for the
length of the time specified by the administrator. Through the Program
Window, you can disconnect rather than exit from RASS, and you will be able
to return to your session in the exact state you left it. To disconnect a
session, click File | Disconnect. If the administrator has not enabled the
session reconnect feature, the Disconnect
option will not appear in the Program Window's File menu.
