Email Access

Outlook on the Web provides complete access to your email from any web browser. This service is available to all employees, works well on all devices, and is the recommended method for accessing email remotely.

Remote Desktop

Remote Desktop allows you to access your workstation computer from outside the office. The remotely accessed computer behaves as though you are sitting directly in front of it and replicates the in-office experience completely. This service is only available to employees that have received management approval.

Follow these steps to configure and use remote desktop from your device:

  1. Install the Mac app from the iTunes Store
  2. Open the app, go to Settings, and create a new gateway. Enter server name = remote.edictsystems.com.
  3. From the main screen, create a new remote connection to a Desktop.
  4. Enter the computer name for the system you want to control, select the gateway you just created, and click Save.
  5. To connect to the remote desktop, click on the new entry for your computer.
  6. You will be prompted for credentials. Enter your user name in the form of edictsystems\username, and enter your password. Click Connect.
  7. You may have to enter your username and password twice.
  8. If you entered all the information correctly (and you have been granted permission to use Remote Desktop), then you will be connected to the computer you specified.
