ThinManage 3.1 Administration Manual

(3) User Pooling - Associating users with Hosts based on Active Directory groups. A pool is pairing of an Active

Directory group of users with a group of computers. From the ThinManage web interface, click Admin->View/Edit

pools to go to the pool configuration page. From there, click Add->Pool to create a new pool. Please see Section,

User Based Pooling, for more information about the pooling connection method.

Determining the Connection Method

The names of the terminals and hosts determine the pairing method. When a terminal requests a session, ThinManage

looks in its inventory for a host having the same name as that terminal. If ThinManage finds such a host, it will

automatically pair the client with that host and the PC-over-IP session will begin automatically. This type of connection

method is Fixed Seating.

Free Seating occurs when ThinManage is unable to find a host having the same name as the terminal. In this situation,

the end-user will be prompted to enter a user name (see Figure below). ThinManage will now find a host matching the

name provided in its inventory and proceed to connect the terminal to that host. This type of pairing can also referred to

as simple named-based pairing, as no preliminary authentication by ThinManage is performed prior to establishing the

connection to the host.

Free Seating with Enhanced Authentication

ThinManage supports a feature in the free seating connection method called enhanced authentication. Administrators

can configure ThinManage to utilize Microsoft Active Directory to authenticate users’ domain credentials before they are

connected to an Host.

An Administrator can configure ThinManage to use AD by accessing the Server Configuration Settings page in the

ThinManage Web Interface. Once these values are entered, enhanced authentication will be enabled within ThinManage,

and an end-user will receive an extended Free Seating dialog box that now includes two additional fields for Password

and Domain.
