Start SAP Session

Plug in the Omnikey 3121 USB SmartCard reader, and plug in the SmartCard.

Start the Citrix Receiver (E.g. in KDE: Applications --> Internet --> Citrix Receiver) and login to the terminal server tsadlm01, use your Windows login and password.

Then run the APPGATE_Start application by clicking the icon.

Open the connection to the server acc1.caz.admin.ch using the method certificate and keep the autoselected certificate, read from the SmartCard reader. Click ok.

Enter your password for the SmartCard token and click ok.

Internet Explorer starts and pops up to websites, HP something and one from the BIT. Close them or leave them, as you like.

Switch to the cmd.exe console of the terminal server and press any key. UltraLogon will start and open the SAP main window, where you select your session.
