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
