RDP inside RDP

RDP inside RDP

Hello,

I'm not that new to RDM, but I am wondering if it's possible to open an RDP inside of RDP session automatically? What do I mean by that:

We don't use VPN but we connect directly to one server from the outside (directly over port 3389).
So it's not RDP gateway, but only a session.
Would it be possible to somehow, from the outside, give the server (RDP session) a command to open further RDP session inside the inital session?

I've seen that there is a possibility to send a command (cmd/powershell...), however needs an agent. I reckon that would be a possibility.

Is it possible to it without an agent?

Many thanks.

Hello,

If you do not want to use our Agent, which would allow a seamless jump and much other benefits, you can use the rdp's built in "start on connection" to launch a batch file or mstsc itself with the proper command line parameters.

Since you cannot send credentials automatically, you would need to manually store credentials in the Windows Credential Manager.

So its easily done for a single remote host, more planning for multiple hosts.


Best regards,
