Hi, We have developed a multiuser intranet based C#.Net client server product where the client application as well as the server application would be at the customer's site. I would like to know how we can give them support remotely. Going to the customer sites for every call may not be possible. How can we provide them a remote suppor...
Is it a huge security flaw to allow user to connect to your server via Remote Desktop? Right now i have a setup where i only allow a couple of ip-addresses to connect via the RDP port but i am thinking of removing this and allow all IP's to connect so i can RDP with my iPhone if there is some problem when I'm not at home. So as long as ...
Hello, I'd like to create a simple remote desktop application (you can view the screen remotely and interact with it). As a first step, I've tried taking screenshots, 1 per second, compressing them to JPEG and sending them over (without interaction), but I've found that even over LAN this is very slow. Do you have any hints on how to d...
The title says it all: Are there any secure alternatives to XDMCP (A Linux remote desktop protocol)? I'd like to set up some thin clients -- UI heads (old computer + mouse + keyboard) connected to VMs on a fast server. ssh -Y doesn't quite cut it, since this would be for non-savvy computer users. I'd like it integrated with kdm/gdm if p...
Hi all, Does anybody know how to adjust the number of RDC sessions for a specific user in Windows 2008 Server? Would really appreciate it! Thanks a million! ...
Hi, I'm on planning/modeling phase to develop a remote desktop sharing solution, which must be web browser based. In other words: an user will be able to see and interact with someone's remote desktop using his web-browser. Everything the user who wants to share his desktop will need, besides his browser, is installing an add-in, which...
I want to create a web application similar to TS Web Access, where I can create rdp files on the fly for Remote Apps configured on the server. Any idea?? ...
So far I have: Set objShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell") objShell.Run("""C:\Server01.rdp""") But when I run it, nothing happens. Is it even possible to run an RDP file with VBScript? If so, then what am I doing wrong? ...
We have some codebar scanners based on Windows CE that run remote applications located on some servers via Windows Terminal Service. Given that we are migrating our server applications to UNIX based operating systems, I was wondering is there any reliable RDP based solution that can be considered ? Thanks, ...
Hello. I have an application that people use through Remote Desktop/Terminal Server. The application supports digital signatures. Well, the digital signature pad is on the client, but the program runs on the server. The signature pad also does not support being shared as a device through Remote Desktop(not listed with "Supported Plug And...
We have a couple production servers that are configured to only allow access via RDP. There are no acessible shares. The dev team have no say in changing this setup but we want to automate code deployments to these machines. Presently we have to set Remote Desktop to share a local drive with the server, then RDP to the server and manuall...
Editing with Visual Studio 2008 over Remote Desktop Connection is an insane exercise in patience, as the screen paints and repaints and repaints and flashes like crazy. Is there any easy fix for this? Both sides are running Windows 7. Vanilla Visual Studio, without anything installed. Literally every keystroke results in the whole wind...
I would like to determine, from a .NET application, whether the current user (from System.Environment.UserName) is logged in to the machine physically, or via terminal services. The use case is a startup program launcher. When I'm logging on to my development machine locally I would normally like a host of applications to be started au...
Remote Desktop Protocol version 6.1 changed the way RDP sessions are handled (making session 0, which previously meant "console session", into a non-interactive session). I need to be able to figure out from within my program how to determine just what version of the RD protocol is being used on the current RDP session. Nothing I can f...
My office has a virtual Windows 2000 Server hosted by GoDaddy. They want to be able to use a Remote Desktop WEB CONNECTION in order to access specific software. Essentially, they want to go to www.whateverdomain.com and login, then see the desktop. I can successfully connect via RDC- but have NO CLUE how to setup the RDC WEB CONNECTION. ...
I am trying to access a windows VM through RDP. I am using NAT and a linux host. I am not getting a proper answer on the web. Can anyone help /? ...
I am troubleshooting a problem with existing code that always worked fine (it's the Terminal Server unit from the Jedi Windows Security Library). After some investigation the problem part has been brought down to a call to WTSOpenServer: while true do begin hServer := WTSOpenServer(PChar('server')); WTSCloseServer(hServe...
We have a massive spreadsheet which does a lot of calculations and not much drawing / writing to spreadsheets My question is : Does monitoring the spreadsheet whilst it is running via RDP actually make this slower?? Put differently if rdp was disconnected would this result in improved speed?? ...
We have an application which uses an OpenGL render context in a subwindow to display a large bitmap. However, when a user remotely connects to a box running this app, the openGL display stops working, most likely due to the reduced texture resolution. While we can detect the remote desktop connection starting/ending using WTS_REMOTE_CO...
