GFI Network Server Monitor Configuring monitor functions • 83
Screenshot 77 – Terminal Services: Physical Logon check parameters dialog
The parameters required by this function are:
• RDP File – Specify path were the Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP)
file is located (e.g. C:\Documents and Settings\<relative user
folder>\Recent\default.rdp).
• Timeout – Specify the number of milliseconds before the function
times out. Usually, a connection to the server is established within
1 second. However, some slow/busy servers need more time.
Recommended value is 7000 milliseconds.
NOTE 1: The RDP file is generated by the Remote Desktop
connection client whenever a remote session is established (e.g.,
Default.rdp). This file contains properties and parameters relative to
the remote connection session made, including authentication details
and display settings which are used during each remote session.
NOTE 2: Terminal Services checks must run under a Local or Domain
Administrative account. Otherwise, these checks will fail with error:
"Failed to establish a terminal server connection".
Linux / Unix OS generic checks
Generic Secure Shell (SSH) Check
The SSH Check function allows you to create custom monitor
functions which can be remotely executed on Unix/Linux based
computers through the Secure Shell (SSH) service running on that
computer. Secure Shell, sometimes known as Secure Socket Shell, is
a Unix-based command interface and protocol for securely getting
access to a remote computer.
