The Novell® Application Launcher™ plug-in is a simplified version of Novell Application Launcher that can be used in place of the ZENworks® Desktop Management Agent on workstations that only require distribution of user-associated applications. Or, it can be used to provide a Web-based rollout of the Management Agent to workstations.
The Novell Application Launcher plug-in includes only the Application Explorer and Application Browser views. It does not include the Application Window view, Novell Application Launcher Service for Windows (nalntsrv.exe), or Application Launcher Workstation Helper (zenappws.dll).
The Novell Application Launcher plug-in also does not include any other ZENworks Desktop Management Agent components, such as Workstation Manager, Workstation Inventory, Remote Management, or Workstation Imaging.
