RDP Connection Configuration
94 Creating a New RDP Connection
4 In the Name field at the top of the dialog, enter a descriptive
name for the RDP connection. This will be used to identify the
connection to the user.
5 On the Network tab, enter the name or IP address of the server
to connect to in the
Address field.
6 If you want an application to be automatically run once you have
logged into an RDP connection, specify the full filename of the
application in the
Application field (for example: winword.exe),
and the full directory path, exactly as it is on the RDP server, in
the
Directory field.
Note that the specified application will be the only one available
to the user during this connection.
7 If you want to enable auto login, specify the Username and
Password. If the user authenticates against an NT-domain, you
need to specify the name of the domain in the
Domain field.
If you do not specify any required login information here, the
user will be prompted for it when the connection is started.
8 Click on the tabs along the top of the dialog to access additional
setup options that you may wish to configure. Refer to the sec-
tions for each dialog tab later in this chapter for details of all the
options available.
9 When you have finished configuring the RDP connection, click
OK.
An icon for the new RDP connection configuration will be
displayed in the
Control Panel - Connections window and on the
desktop, and it will be listed for selection in the taskbar
menu
and the
Connection Manager.
If you need to change the configuration of an RDP connection, dis-
play the
Control Panel - Connections window then double-click on
the relevant RDP connection configuration icon.
