VMWare Horizon Client has ssh-tunneling build into the application and, therefore, creates its own safe connection to WURNET. In this post I will describe, how to install and configure MyWorkspace at Wageningen University & Research on a Debian/Ubuntu based Linux system.Ĭonnecting to a Virtual Windows WURclient desktop with VMWare Horizon Client does not require a VPN connection. A more elegant solution is to use a Virtual Windows WURclient desktop via MyWorkspace.

However, this would require each Linux user to have access to at least one Windows WURclient desktop. One solution would be to use a remote desktop client to access a Windows WURclient desktop. Therefore, it is essential to be able to access a Windows WURclient when needed. This program is only available on Windows WURclients. One example is MyProjects, which employees need for time recording of their workweek. Unfortunately not all programs are available for the Linux Operating System, that employees need for their work at Wageningen University & Research. FB-IT is supported by their colleagues maintaining the High Performance Computing Cluster Anunna, who have a lot of knowledge about the Linux Operating System, because it’s the Operating System used by Anunna.

At Wageningen University & Research the Linux Operating System is supported on a best effort principle, meaning that it is supported as far as the knowledge of Facilities and Services Information Technology (FB-IT) reaches.
