Opening RDC from inside a web site

[Guest CBenac]

We are looking to implement an option where the user could access the TS

(2003) by clicking a link in our web site, that would bring up the rdc

window. Does anyone have an example on how to acomplish this? Note: The web

server and the TS server are different machines and in different

locations/networks.

 

Being optimistic here, and assuming that it is possible, since the user

authentication is done when logging in the web site, is it possible to pass

the username/password combination into the remote desktop window? Better yet

would be to bypass it completely and open a TS session right after the user

clicked the link.

 

TIA

Yes we do this on several websites. You'll need the following information to

get started.
