Linux Clients

The Linux Client is an application that can be installed on target computers to monitor the activity of their users in the terminal.

The monitored data is sent by the Linux Client to the Application Server and can be viewed using the Session Viewer in the Management Tool.

Optionally, during installation of the Linux Client, you can enable monitoring of the GUI for X Window System to allow monitoring of user sessions started locally via the GUI.
