Re: Change shell connecting to server 2008 r2

Hi,

When I create an rdp-file on the windows server, like for notepad, I end up with a file called notepad.rdp

Executing that file gives me what I want, that is a session with only notepad. But still I cant get rdesktop to do the same.

I use a line like this;

rdesktop -a 16 -A -s "c:\seamlessrdp\seamlessrdpshell.exe c:\Windows\System32\notepad.exe" serverip -d domain -u user -p password

I tried the same line with a server 2003, and there it works.

It was from another linux workstation though, since that server is on another network.  But that should not make any difference?

Regards  /Joje
