Welcome To FreeWyseMonkeys

We love thin client terminals here at the free monkeys. In fact we love server based computing in general. But when first getting into Wyse thin client there is not enough good information....well the monkeys will share what they know with you!

This is obviously a new site and still young in its content. At this stage all topics and content will be broken down by OS, so if you are looking for a question on a particular thin client be sure and search by that OS. If you are new to thin client a good starting point would be here. Device management software is also a separate topic. Key areas of this site are:

• Content by operating system
• Technical Forums
• Downloads

It is hoped to also include a knowledge base at some stage however there are limited resources right now for the site so if we get enough interest we may get this going to. Of course feel free to give as any feedback on what you would like to see.

WDM 4.7.2 new version is released
Thin Press Wyse has just re-released WDM 4.7.2 to its website. Due to some late discovered bugs the first version was pulled off of the website. Now everything was fixed and the code is posted again.

WDM V4.7.2 removed from Wyse Download area
Thin Press fixer982 writes "The new version of WDM, V4.7.2 has been removed from the Wyse website due to problems with its GUI. Once installed over an earlier version, the XPe devices do not show as checking in. It also does not roll out update packages. Wyse WDM Team are working on a solution at present. Do not apply this upgrade until a corrected version is available! V4.7.1 is still best for now, warts and all!"

XPe Version 587 has problems with WDM
Windows XPe - 9150SE, 941G, S90, V90 fixer982 writes "Everyone should be aware that Version 587 of the BIOS on X90L XPe Notebook Clients has problems which prevent upload/download from WDM 4.7.1

The solution is to use the new Wyse USB Firmware Tool and the 9X92_S618_512 package to update the units before configuring a master unit for image creation and distribution using WDM.

Press Items: USB Imaging Tool is available now
Wyse Device Management ConfGen writes "Wyse has finally released their long awaited USB Imaging tool.
We have reported about that in our latest article already.
You can download it from the Wyse website under WDM downloads.
After downloading it, extract the archive to your local PC and start the tool there.
The only two additional things you need is
- a USB stick
- a master device or an image file
Wyse only supports V-, R- and X-class units (except X90) and Linux V6, Wyse enhanced Suse Linux and Windows XPe as operating systems.
More to come in the next version. Stay tuned.

Yours ConfGen"

Wyse is going to release USB Imaging and new Linux
Thin Press Wyse is going to release two new great products. One is a very long awaited USB flashing tool for their thin clients. This will eliminate the need to flash corrupt units with network tools like WDM or WSI. The second release will be SUSE Linux for thin clients. This brand new Linux will be released on Wyse X-class (mobile thin client) and on the upcoming R-class.

Tech Docs: XPe: German MUI and Integrating into Active Directory
Windows XPe - 9150SE, 941G, S90, V90 Mangelsdorff writes "If you change the MUI of a V90L (even newest Build 596) to German and take the device into the domain then you will face problems at logon to the device:
- long time until logon
- taskbar not visible (only a line) and not functional

There is a FIX available from Wyse which solves the problem."

Tech Docs: Using PXE without IP Helpers
Wyse Device Management
Issue:

Imaging Wyse devices with PXE across WAN or VLAN requires the use of IP helpers and it is not always possible to configure the required network changes on switches or routers.


Fact:

The PXE RFC requires that the boot server receive a DHCP request packet from a client to the boot server. This UDP packet needs to be explicitly forwarded by a router or layer 3 switch to traverse the network. A DHCP relay or IP helper is used to forward the DHCP request to a central DHCP server and PXE boot server.


Details:

Both the boot server and DHCP server are both listening on the same port (UDP 66) for the same packet. The DHCP server replies with an acknowledgement and the PXE boot server will reply with the details of the location of the boot server.
