Way to mass add subconnections?

Way to mass add subconnections?

avatar

I've got RDP set up for all our machines that I manage, however we also run a desktop remote software where I can remote via a web browser and assist users while they watch.

So, in essence I'd like to create subconnections for all my RDP connections that are web connections with the URL:

https://$PARENT_HOST$:2000/default.html

I tried a batch edit but it doesn't look like I can specify sub connections.

Hi,

Unfortunately we don't have anything to do that directly in batch. But there is one thing that might help, you can try to create a custom session script tool and use a template for that.

1. Create a shared template (File->Templates) with your web parameters and the $PARENT_HOST$ variable

2. Click the menu Edit->Add-> New Session Script Tool

3. Select the newly created template

Done, you will see a new tool available in the dashboard at the bottom.

That sounds better, however I just tried it and I must have missed something.

I created a shared template of web type with the following string: https://$PARENT_HOST$:2000/default.html

Then I added a session script tool, selected template and selected the template I just created above. The command does show under all computers, however when I click the session tool link, I get the following in my browser:

http://computername/

when I should have gotten

https://computername:2000/default.html

Hi,

I will do some test, I think that the application is replacing the full url and not just the host. I remembered to have fixed a bug similar but maybe it's not fixed for a template.

Thanks for looking. Also note it change it from https to http, so it replaced the prefix before the variable.
