Overview

Many installs of CNF software are via Microsoft RemoteApp. With RemoteApp, software installed on a remote server displays locally and appears to run locally.

Invoking - Windows

On Windows desktops, RemoteApp software will have the RemoteApp icon:

When prompted for your username, use:

CORNELL\netid

or

CORNELL\guestid

along with your netid or guestid. Make sure to capitalize "CORNELL".

If you see a message asking "Do you trust the publisher?" for sf-cnfapp-01.serverfarm.cornell.edu, click "Connect".

Invoking - CNF Thin

On CNF Thin, just type in the appropriate command to start the software. The command will be noted in the "Invoking" section of that software web page on the CNF Computing site (this site).

When prompted, enter in your NetID password or GuestID password.

Drives

The CNF Lab Transfer share is available as the V: drive on the remote computer. You should use the Lab Transfer share to transfer files to and from the remote computer. Files store on the Desktop/Documents folder of the remote computer will be deleted at logoff from the remote computer. From Windows, your Local Disks may also be mapped to the remote server. If available, local disks including local USB should appear under "This PC - Devices and drives".
