it. Select 'Options' to bring up the Options menu

Usage Notes
The VM assigned to you by the connection broker will remain assigned to you until you request
it be released, or until you log out and remain logged out for more than 1 day [NOTE: 'logged
out' is equivalent to logging out of a Linux Workstation or shutting down a VNC server. It is NOT
the same as disconnecting from or suspending your remote session.

Custom configurations of Xconfig settings are possible by copying one of the standard configs
provided and then making modification to it. This custom config will reside only on the VM

assigned to you. However you can export it to your local laptop/workstation so that it can be
preserved or transferred to a different VM if you change hosts.

Session shadowing, or sharing your screen is possible but not in a "Multi-monitor" configuration.
To share your session
Right-click on the EOD ('X') icon in the top-left corner of the window border and select
the 'Session'->'Share' menu
Make sure "Enable" is check-marked then click on "Manage Share List"
Click the 'Add' button to bring up the user list
Select the usernames you wish to share the session with, or type them into the field at
the bottom of the window and click 'Ok'
Set the desired permissions for each participant, or remove unneeded ones.
Click 'Close'
For a user to join a shared session, that user must lauch the EOD client directly. The
Leostream broker does not manage sharing sessions
NOTE: a maximum of 5 participants can be part of a sharing session
NOTE: cut-n-paste only works for the session owner, not for any of the participants
(regardless of permissions)

Printing to a local printer is possible using the 'elpr' command which can be found in
