The NetVue client application connects to the specified NetVue Server, and the NetVue home page
opens.
NetVue searches the client computer for cached settings for the logged-on user account. If none are
found, NetVue loads the default user settings stored on the NetVue Server.
The NetVue client always attempts to login with the credentials of the local Windows user (or Domain
account) first. If integrated into Windows Domain, or if the user/password of the local account matches
the one configured in NetVue, then the application opens without showing the logon screen.
