clipboard-mode file transfer in TS 2008 has changed?

[Guest Hong]

Has the clipboard functionality regarding file transfer changed under

Windows 2008?

 

Under Windows 2003, an XP client with RDP 6 installed can *not* select a

file in the remote desktop session, right-click and select 'Copy', and then

back to local desktop, right-click somewhere (e.g. My Documents) and hit

'Paste'.

 

In Server 2008, if you map your clipboard across but not any local drives,

you *are* able to copy files using the steps above.

 

Is there workaround to 'restore' the behaviour in Winddows 2003 so this

clipboard-mode file transfer is prohibited, unless doing it manually (editing

the file, copy the data, and then manually create a new file locally and

paste the data in) ?

 

 

Thanks

If you want to disable clipboard redirection, open remote desktop connection

client, select Options->Local Resources Tab->Uncheck clipboard there.

 

Thanks
