I don't experience the lag in my small non-profit too much. I see that your MUCH LARGER environment may not find this efficient. I connect a vpn to our server, then I can use local computer names or Ip's to connect to servers and PCs. NVDA works quite nicely with a minor lag. I guess I just learned to live with it. It may not be practical for you. I also had to edit the hosts file ON MY HOME PC with the server and its ip so I could rdp by computer name. I think that enabled DNS TO PASS THROUGH THE VPN. -----Original Message----- From: Blind-sysadmins [mailto:blind-sysadmins-bounces@lists.hodgsonfamily.org] On Behalf Of Ryan Shugart Sent: Thursday, September 17, 2015 9:06 AM To: Blind sysadmins list <blind-sysadmins@lists.hodgsonfamily.org> Subject: Re: [Blind-sysadmins] NVDA remote VS Window-Eyes or JAWS remote access in a datacenter environment Did you have to do anything special to make that work? With audio redirection on, I can get lot of lag, especially if the server is in a datacenter far away from me. What do you do about remote machines, say on other continents? Ryan

I'm able to get away with using NVDA without it's remote access component. I've created a group policy for PC audio redirection across the domain. NVDA gets me through my remote sessions most of the time, unless the application in the session is challenging and requires Window-eyes mouse control.

Hi all: I was wondering what the experiences here were using NVDA remote access as apposed to JAWS or Window-Eyes offering specifically in a datacenter environment managing remote servers. I have Window-Eyes set up on just under 200 servers, about 60 or so of which I access regularly and the others from time to time if ever (Window-Eyes is in our base image so its ready to go if needed.) With Window-Eyes, I know I can just RDP in, once a desktop comes up press ctrl+alt+w and am good to go. If I were to use NVDA in this same situation, I know it uses its own remote access protocol and not RDP, which is both good and bad, but was wondering what you have found the ideal setup for that is? Thanks a lot. Ryan _______________________________________________ Blind-sysadmins mailing list Blind-sysadmins@lists.hodgsonfamily.org https://lists.hodgsonfamily.org/listinfo/blind-sysadmins
