Re: Confused about KB article 911913

 

Hey TP,

 

So RDP 60 is the hotfix they are refering to? I'm looking at making the

change large scale, I can push RDP 60 out vis WSUS and make the registry

changes via GPO but every fully updated client I look at only has a portion

of the path indicated in the article. Missing Default\AddIns\RDPDR whereas

the article indicates to add the DWORD only, what am I missing? Thanks!

Re: Confused about KB article 911913

 

Hello,

 

The article refers to a modified version of an older client. The article

states the file version as 6.0.2600.0 which is *incorrect*. The newer

clients include the new "default printer only" capability so you have the

option of using one of them instead of the hotfix version.

 

I prefer to use client version 5.2.3790.3959 because it does not have

the bugs that are present in the 6.0.6000.16386 version that you get

through WSUS. The .msi install file for client version 5.2.3790.3959

is located on your 2003 SP2 server here:

 

C:\WINDOWS\system32\clients\tsclient\win32\msrdpcli.msi

 

You will need to create the registry entry per Vera's suggestion or

another method.

 

Thanks.
