RDP Console not working properly
I can not get an RDP to my Win2k3 servers working. Whenever I choose "Open in Console" option I get an mstsc error/help options window that appears.
I think you have to add /console instead of the /admin as a command switch, but I am not sure. I first tried latest version on your website and then the beta you posted in the forums but neither work.
This is preventing me from using the product, and I would love to be able to use it. Let me know if you need any additional information.
Thanks

Hi
Micrsoft changed the command line parameter in Window XP SP3. If you get the help message it's because the application does not use the right one. This can be configured in the application Option, in the Advanced tab page. Check or uncheck the option "Use old Remote Desktop Console Connection".
This will solve your problem.

Worked like a charm. Thanks for the quick reply!
Hello,
as i'm using the actual version (5.7.3.0) on a Win2K3 Server i want to use the "old" parameter, but i'm not able to find the checkbox in the "application Options - advanced tab" - there are only settings for "Ping" "Sort Priority" and "internal informations".
am i blind or has this option been eliminated....or just moved to somewhere else?
best regards

Hi,
It's in the menu File->Options, in the tab page "Session Type" in the section Default settings.
