Getting files back to the user's PC from a TS Session

[Guest John F Kappler]

(This is a repost as no response last time!)

 

We have a Server (2003) on a LAN with our SBServer (2003 R2).

 

Users log in to the TS remotely in order to run an application (Sage)

 

In the application they run reports, and, if they are in their local

office, are able to print these reports on their local printer (if

supported by TS).

 

However, the application gives them the option to e-mail reports to

other users, but this seems to need an e-mail client on the TS.

 

As their are mutiple users, some of whom's mailboxes are hosted by

Exchange on the SBS, and some only have local mailboxes on their PC,

is there any way they can e-mail out from the TS?

 

Alternately, they could save the reports as PDF files, but I presume

that as the application is running in a TS session, they can only save

to disk on the TS itself or, alternately, other storage on the LAN?

 

Any suggestions as to how to get application reports distributed from

a TS session would be welcome but please bear in mind the remote users

tend not to be techies!

 

TIA,

Hi,

If you have drive mapping enable, users can save pdf file to the local drive

as well.

You just need to send a commmand to open the file on the local machine

 

 

I have answerd you on your original post:

=======================================

Hi,

 

You can download the TSRemoteExec from my website:

http://www.mqtechnologies.com, this utility allows user to execute a command

line on the client side.

If the users save report as PDF file on their machine you only need to send

a command line using Sendto Mail Recipient feauture , if the file is saved

on the server you can download the Remote File Transfer component to

transfer file before launching the Sendto program .

 

For the Sendto program, you can use this one :

http://www.arstdesign.com/articles/sendto.exe.html

 

very easy, probably you will need to modify it a little, if you need help, I

can modify this program for you

to launch the default email program

 

Regards
