We´re currently running horizon client under Dell Optiplex 3XXX series, the headset in use is Jabra Biz 2300 USB and there more than 900 users using this technology.

The context is, users are making calls on this environment and during the day they are experiencing issues with the microphone that is not working, in order to fix this, we either restart the drivers in Windows within Dizzion or reconnect to the horizon client itself. The instructions that users are following is selecting the prefered microphone driver and while connected to the client are enabling the options Automatically Connect at Startup and Automatically Connect when Inserted.

Please let me know if we need to follow up any other recommended steps in order to fix it.

Regards

The 8.0.5 iOS Horizon Client update ostensibly adds support for ”any external mouse” for iPadOS 13.4, which I presume also means the Magic Keyboard Trackpad. However, while you can click on items on a desktop, the cursor disappears on the screen.

It seems like the mouse support is not functioning correctly.

We are using the 2-Factor Authentication from Google in Horizon View for all our external Horizon users. Therefore we have setup a CentOS VM with the Google Authenticator package installed. The Guide for this can be found here: https://blogs.vmware.com/consulting/files/2015/02/VMW_15Q1_TD_Horizon-View-Google-Authenticator_021715_FINAL_EMonjoin.pdf

Because Sysadmins are a bit lazy and we also do not want to generate every QR-code by hand for all our Users, we have come up with this fully automated Linux script.

A cronjob runs this script every 5 minutes. If a new user and HomeDir is created, the script automaticly creates the QR-code for this user and places a textfile with the URL for the QR-code in the Users Homedir. It works like a charm and saves us a lot of time.

  Feel free to use this script in your own environment, but please leave the header info as it is

#!/bin/bash

# There are some prerequisites to make this script work:

# - replace domainname.com with your AD domainname
