You might be able to change the RDP file extension to something like RDP1 or CDP. Then make a file association with that file extension to launch MSTSC /CONSOLE The deal is that the RDP file extension is associated with MSTSC without the console switch.=20 Ron Oglesby Senior Technical Architect Microsoft MVP, Windows Server=20 =20 RapidApp, Chicago Office 312.372.7188 Mobile 815.325.7618 email roglesby@xxxxxxxxxxxx =20 -----Original Message----- From: Daniel Schoppmann [mailto:dschoppmann@xxxxxx]=20 Sent: Tuesday, May 25, 2004 3:44 PM To: thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [THIN] RDP to the console session on W2K3 Hi list I know, that I can connect to via RDP directly to a W2K3 console via commandline: mstsc /v:<hostname> /console but isn't there a way to set the console flag in the RDP Gui or perhaps an entry that I can set in an RDP-Configuration file (*.rdp)? Until now I didn't find anything like that. Hope somebody could help here.
