jftuga Posted June 30, 2005 Share Posted June 30, 2005 (edited) I have written a nonintrusive desktop applet that I use at work for connecting to a large number of servers via RDP (Remote Desktop) & VNC. The hosts can be broken up into logical groups. Everything is configured in a .ini file. In the default .ini file, the first 3 groups use RDP, and the last group, which is an automatic concatenation of the first 3, use UltraVNC Viewer (you can change this to any flavor of VNC). I have found this to be a big time saver and a way to save space on the desktop. The applet is almost completely transparent when not in use as to not clutter up the desktop.Any comments or suggestions are welcome!-JohnDec 12, 2006 -- updated, see belowRemote_Manager_v7c.zip Edited December 12, 2006 by jftuga Admin_Popup, show computer info or launch shellRemote Manager, facilitates connecting to RDP / VNCProc_Watch, reprioritize cpu intensive processesUDF: _ini_to_dict, transforms ini file entries into variablesUDF: monitor_resolutions, returns resolutions of multiple monitorsReport Computer Problem, for your IT help deskProfile Fixer, fixes a 'missing' AD user profile Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ybouan Posted June 30, 2005 Share Posted June 30, 2005 I love the idea and was going to make one for myself. Unfortunately when I select a machine it does not launch my rdp session... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jftuga Posted July 1, 2005 Author Share Posted July 1, 2005 Try setting RunErrorsFatal to 0 in the .ini file. Also try setting Program to C:\WINDOWS\system32\mstsc.exe /v:_HOST_ under the [Groups]. Please let me know if you get it working. -John Admin_Popup, show computer info or launch shellRemote Manager, facilitates connecting to RDP / VNCProc_Watch, reprioritize cpu intensive processesUDF: _ini_to_dict, transforms ini file entries into variablesUDF: monitor_resolutions, returns resolutions of multiple monitorsReport Computer Problem, for your IT help deskProfile Fixer, fixes a 'missing' AD user profile Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jftuga Posted December 12, 2006 Author Share Posted December 12, 2006 (edited) I got around to fixing a nagging bug that several people PM'd me about. In the ini file, this now works correctly:; x coord. of the window, default=515 (between the center & far right side)TopWin_X=515The binary is now built with AutoIt v 3.2.0.1.-John Edited December 12, 2006 by jftuga Admin_Popup, show computer info or launch shellRemote Manager, facilitates connecting to RDP / VNCProc_Watch, reprioritize cpu intensive processesUDF: _ini_to_dict, transforms ini file entries into variablesUDF: monitor_resolutions, returns resolutions of multiple monitorsReport Computer Problem, for your IT help deskProfile Fixer, fixes a 'missing' AD user profile Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
