Enabling client sound, and client serial and parallel ports

FH Web Edition supports sound capability for any application that uses PlaySound, sndPlaySound, or waveOut. Sound cards must be installed on the host and client machines. Speakers are not required on the host, but are on the client machine. Audio support is disabled by default.

FH Web Edition also allows applications running on the host to access client machines’ serial and parallel ports. Serial and parallel ports are disabled by default.

Note: Client sound and client serial and parallel ports requires the loading of FH Web Edition libraries into session processes. This can affect the startup of a process, make some processes incompatible with FH Web Edition, or have fatal consequences during suspend/resume operations. Information on these options is available in Advanced session process configuration.

1. In the FH Web Edition Connection Manager, from the All Hosts list, select the host you want to work with.
2. Choose Tools → Host Options.
3. Click the Client Access tab.
4. Depending on what want to do, select one or both of the following options.
   • Sound.
   • Serial and Parallel Ports
5. Click OK.
