This will be: https://remote.school-domain-name/rdweb
You should see a webpage similar to that shown.

Click Allow
3. Enter your Domain\User Name This will be the word "school" followed by a back slash "\" followed by your usual username that you use at school.
So if your username is smithj, you will enter school\smithj - as shown in the example opposite
Enter your Password. This is your normal password that you use at school .
If you are using a shared computer, check the radio button beside This is a public or shared computer
If you are using a private computer that is not shared then you can check the radio button beside This is a private computer
Click Sign in
4. Click on the shortcut of the program you want to start
5. Click Connect. Your program will then start.
If you are using a private computer (i.e. you checked the radio button beside "This is a private computer" when logging in) then you will have the option to tick a box beside Don't ask me again for remote connections from this publisher.
This will stop the prompt appearing in future when starting programs
