Chapter 3 Linux Version

### Characteristic of Linux version

- You can install Desktop On-Call to your Linux system by RPM(Redhat Package Manager). If RPM is not supported on your Linux, you can install Desktop On-Call by unpacking tar.zip file.
- On Linux version, you can use two user IDs, a login user ID for Linux and a "guest", for Desktop On-Call's guest PC.
  For the login user ID, variables for the remote control function are set in the user configuration file as a default. For the "guest" user ID, variables for the view only function are set in the guest configuration file as a default.
- Unlike remote login via X-Terminal, the screen on the host PC synchronizes with the image displayed in a browser on a Desktop On-Call's guest PC. This function is useful when operators use the screen via GUI, teach each other and share information on the screen.
- There is no property setting GUI panel for Desktop On-Call. You can set your Desktop On-Call's property by editing configuration files. You can also inquire a status of a Desktop On-Call's host PC.
- The file transfer function is not supported because FTP is common on Linux.
- Supported Linux distributions are as follows:
  - redhat® Linux 6.2
  - TurboLinux Workstation 6.0
  - Caldera OpenLinux eServer 2.3
