Dell Hybrid Client version 2403 Administrator's Guide

Configure the guest user account settings

The Guest account is a low-privilege account that is available for users. You can enable or disable the guest user account using Wyse Management Suite. If you have logged in as a guest user data, local configurations are not preserved across logins. For example, when a guest user configures a wallpaper setting locally, the setting is restored to the default wallpaper when the user logs out and logs back in. However, when the same wallpaper is configured from Wyse Management Suite (Device User Policies), the setting changes are applied to the subsequent guest user logins.

1. Log in to Wyse Management Suite.
2. Go to the Groups & Configs page, and select your preferred group.
3. Click Edit Policies > Dell Hybrid Client 2.x.
   The Configuration Control | Dell Hybrid Client 2.x page is displayed.
4. Click the Advanced tab.
5. Expand Privacy & Security, and click Guest User Account Properties.
6. Click the Guest user account toggle key to enable or disable the guest user account. By default, the guest user account is enabled.
7. Click the Password prompt guest account toggle key to ON state to enable the password prompt for the guest account.
8. In the Set password for Guest user field, enter the password for the guest user account.
   The minimum password length is nine characters and the maximum password length is 127 characters. The password must contain at least one uppercase letter, one lowercase letter, one numeric digit, and one special character. Do not use your username as your password.

   NOTE:When password fails to set, the password does not get updated for the guest user. You can view the failure error message on the Events tab in Wyse Management Suite.
9. Click the Auto SignOn toggle key to ON state to enable the guest user to automatically log in to Dell Hybrid Client.
10. Click the Remove Device Lock and Password prompt on wakeup toggle key to ON state to enable the option. After the device or display resumes from sleep mode, the lock screen is no longer displayed and the device does not prompt for a password.
11. Click Save and Publish.
    After receiving the configuration, the client displays a restart notification if the auto signon is enabled, remove device lock is enabled, or the guest user password is configured. Close the notification and log off manually to apply the configuration.
