No save desired for RDP download?

[Guest Rich Raffenetti]

I have a terminal server where users execute applications by clicking an

icon on a web page. The action causes an rdp file to download to their

desktop. When the rdp is executed, a session is created to the terminal

server.

 

This works great for both windows and macintosh clients.

 

The problem is that the download results in a dialog box asking whether to

save or open (execute) the file. I don't want the users to save these files

as they might be changed to add a feature, for example. That is, I want the

open option and not the save option.

 

Is there some way to inhibit the save option?

That's something you'd control in the design of the web page, I presume.

But have you considered TSWeb instead?
