Use the New Computer, User Information tab to enter the default user account details for connecting to the computer. This information can be overridden in the Connection Settings dialog.

This tab contains the following fields:

Connect as Specified User

Connects you to the remote computer with specified user credentials. If not selected (default setting), the viewer attempts to connect as the currently logged on user (unified logon). Unified logon is useful, for example, if you work in an environment where you are forced to change your password every 30 days.

Note: Unified Login can only be used with Native Windows Security. For all other security providers you must provide the full user details in the Connect as a different user section of the Connect tab.
