[THIN] Re: RDP Question...Desktop Reproduction ?

I generally publish a vbscript.

 

strRDPClientLocation = "C:\WINDOWS\System32\mstsc.exe"

strRDPConfigFile = "U:\MyRemote.rdp"

 

Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")

Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")

 

If objFSO.FileExists(strRDPConfigFile) then

  strLaunchApp = strRDPClientLocation & “ “ &strRDPConfigFile

  intReturn = WshShell.Run(strLaunchApp, 4, FALSE)

else

   wscript.echo "Sorry, no Remote Desktop File defined."

End if

You can setup and published a .rdp file.   You could even call it a generic 
name like myremote.rdp and save it in the user's H: drive so you only have to 
publish one app.

 

The caveat to saving a .rdp file with the username and password is the users 
themselves have to create and save the .rdp file as the username and password 
is encrypted using their account.  If you created a .rdp file with you account, 
 only your account can decrypt the username and password in the .rdp file.

 

As mentioned before,  Citrix has an RDP broker available for those with a 
current SubAdv.  And if you wait til Monday (or so),  Citrix is expected to 
release their second generation of the technology.

Hey All,

I've seen some shops actually give RDP access to an employee's actual desktop. 
Many can agree or disagree with this, but i'm more concerned about how are they 
are doing this and if possible,can i accomplish this via citrix/WI ? 

Is there a way to pre-configure an RDP session with all the necessary 
ip/username/pass information and save it as an .rdp extension  and publish that 
 ?

I could really use this feature as oppose to publishing the desktop and 
creating a romaing profile --for my IT group, not for standard users. 

Thanks All
