Client

This is a GUI application, and as such you’ll require a client to connect.

There are many different clients, across different operating systems, that can be used to connect. Due to this diversity and user preference it is difficult to recommend and support them all.

This has been tested using MobaXTerm to successfully connect and pipe the GUI onto the connecting desktop. Off campus, this required first connecting to the VPN, using PulseSecure, and then connecting to loren101.arcc.uwyo.edu.

If you have any issues please contact arcc-help@uwyo.edu and we’ll do our best to assist.
