Hey Remko,

this one is amazing, but it is nto working on the remote machines which i am trying to acces. When i login to the remote machine first it displays a warnign dialog box where i need to press OK and then i will get the login credentials dialog. So your product is failing as it stops near the warnign dialog when i click ok i need to give my password again. Is there a way to resolve this. I even tried your 1.2 version didnt helped. Please advice.

thanks
Prady

Very nice work. I came across this article when searching for the same feature. But I am searching for code. Could you please give the source code?

This is a very nice program, but i have get in to some trouble, LaunchRDP do not work in a server 2008, are you planning to do so? We have installed Password Manager Pro in a citrix environment, and Launch RDP works fine if citrix is installed on server 2003, but not 2008. Do you know a fix or work around?

Use the code from here to do the encryption. Use vb.net or C to create the RDP file. Works best if you shell to dos and run start mstsc rdpfilename. Flag the shell command as hidden to not see the black winddow. For console access check the version of mstsc.exe if 5 add /Console if 6 use /Admin. The rdp file internals are documented by microsoft. This is not that hard and did not take that long. Launching from dos helps silence the cert complaints.

Hoi Remko,

Is er een mogelijkheid om een glimp van je sources te bemachtigen ? (delphi) Tegen betaling ?

Ik ben erg geinteresseert hoe je het hebt opgelost om geen warning meer te krijgen enz.

Have we got the minimize buttons back yet?

This is a great program. I am writing a vb program to do vpn access and have been using msrdp.ocx to do my rdp contections. It works great until I get to VISTA. This will solve my problem, but like everyone else I need the minimize and exit buttons. I will pay to get this done. Or it I could have the code to customize this for what I need, How much would I need to pay.

Thanks,

Hi Remko,

I appreciate this cool app that is given away for free and I would never even think of urging you to make an update or criticize anything that you create in your free time.

But it is not fair to make a challenge, saying “when I receive at least 5 donations I will create an update with the connection bar in it!” and then telling us that you are too busy to deliver and not even give us a hint when we can expect this update.

Besides, getting the Minimize Buttons back (that you explixitly hide in your code) shouldn’t take more than hour of programming time, should it?
