New Beta available (EAP for the version 6.0)

Hello David,

nice to see the new beta, but can you also provide the beta as binary code *.zip?

rgs Bob

My mistake:

http://remotedesktopmanager.com/download/Devolutions.RemoteDesktopManager.Bin.5.9.0.5.zip

Hello David,

i try to use the new KeepPass Add-on, but unfortunately it seems to designed only for the RDM Enterprise Edition.

When i try to create a new Edit -> Add -> Credential Repository, than i get the message, that this feature is ONLY available in the RDM Enterprise Edition.

Should it be only for the RDM Enterprise Edition, or how can i use it with the freeware/standard edition ?

rgs Bob

Hi,

Yes it's only for the Enterprise Edition since we use the credential repository. You can give it a try by requesting a trial and by the way, we are not picky about the trial, you can extend it for more than 30 days.

Hello David,

many thanks for your quick response.

I will try the Trial version, but how can expant it over the 30days?

How can i request it ?

Bob

Hi Bob,

You can extend it to more 30 days, we allow that.

thank you for adding the new "promt for note on open", is it possible to create an own database field for the note on connection?

and i found out, that if a vpn connection needs a very long time to connect, you ask if i want to open the rdp without vpn connection, but some secounds later the vpn-connection is availably, but the vpn connection will not be closed at the end of the rdp-connection.

thank you very much for your devolpement

Hi,

I added a feature request for the own database field for the note, it's a good idea. For the VPN, I will verify, I think that there is a timeout and I'm not sure if it's configurable. If it's not, I will expose this value. I know that I added a VPN wait delay, have you tried it ?

Maybe I am doing something wrong, but I can not longer type a specific server into the quick connect box. The drop-down works and I have a history of what I have typed in the past, but I am no longer able to type anything new in.

Thanks!

Hi,

Sorry about that, I don't know what happened, but a property of the combobox was changed by mistake. It's fixed, I will release a new beta soon.

Do you have an estimate on release for the fix? I use this feature a ton.

http://remotedesktopmanager.com/download/Devolutions.RemoteDesktopManager.Bin.5.9.0.9.zip

Just be careful, you might see some new features that are not completed yet but this should not be a problem.

is it me, or is it still not possible to type something into the quick connect box...

Hi,

I uploaded the files, it was not the right build (same version by the way)

Yep, that is looking better.

I keep losing keyboard focus in this new build (5.9.0.9, working QC box). I can still use mouse in the terminal server window, but constantly losing ability to type in the embedded window. If I disconnect and reconnect, works fine.

Hi,

It's really weird, I don't know what might cause that, but I able to reproduce. I will take a look at it right now

Thanks!

I noticed that if I click on the "PLAY" icon next to the session name (NOT the session name itself), then I can get focus back. Same as if I click View->Focus Session. It's the same icon on both.

Hi,

I think that it's now fixed.

Thanks for what continues to be a great project with great support.

This may not be the correct place to post this, but are there any plans in the future to add other password managers, such as password safe, or last pass, etc?

Thanks again.

Hi,

WE already looked at at LastPass and there is no API to integrated it. Someone proposed a possible solution, it's not simple but there is a hope. For password safe, I don't know this one, I will look at it.

Hi David,

Did not yet check a new build since the 5.9 launch. Any new SDK stuff?

Cheers!

Sjoerd

Hi,

There is many new SDK stuff, but not documented now. I only have on thing to add for the SDK. I will produce a documentation soon. but you will see that I added many new interface version.

Hi,

I verified and I'm able to read the Password Safe database, so it's possible to integrate this product in RDM

Hi,

A new beta is now available, here is a short list of the new features:

- Added alternate host ping

- Added LastPass support

The Auto login mode is not possible on a windows 7 x64 machine, probably due to different default Iexplore.exe location, and the default browser can't be changed to be the x64 enabled one.

Hi,

I use Windows 7 x64, what error do you got, because it works fine for me ?

Maybe i'm doing something wrong, but i can't get the auto login function working. with any website. i'll try the forum website.

with kind regards,

Jos Greeve

Have you setup the control id for the web site ? Does it work in embedded mode ? Also, make sure to check auto fill login.

Lot's of good stuff in the new one. Only problem I'm seeing so far is that my VMWare Infrastructure icon is always a Red Circle with an exclamation in it. Can't find what it causing it.

Hi Zim,

Sorry for the bug, I updated the binaries files with a fix, you can downlod it again. I haven't changed the version number so it's the same url

hello David,

i have a new problem (using RDM 5.9.0.13)

I have group = Wood, with one Session (A) and create a SubSession (B) of session A.

Unfortunately i can't delete the SubSession B from session A, because the "Delete Session" is inactive (greyed out) for B, it's only available for session A.

How can i delete this SubSession B from session A?

or is this works as designed?

Bob

Hi bob,

It's not possible for now to delete a subconnection directly from the tree view, it's on my list but for now, you must open the parent and delete it from the list.

Hello David,

many thanks for the quick response. When do you think is it possible, because i don't wanna detele the parent. In this case i must re-add all the settings of the parents.

rgs Bob

You don't need to delete the parent, you only need to edit the parent, go in the sub connection tab and delete the session you no longer want.

Yes, you are right, sorry i was blind.

I did it, and i can delete the subsession there.

many thanks.

Bob

Thanks for the fix David!

Hi Didier,

You're right, I'm gone fix that this morning. It's not a bug, it's a wrong design decision that I can change easily. Thank you

Hi David,

I confirm "Fixed a problem with the saving of the web control ID when no user specified" is OK for me now

What does "auto-login" really means : it should send credentials as soon as web form open or does i have to click on the "key" button ?

Ok for auto-login : the results really depends on the web form : sometimes it doesn't send anything and i have to click on "key" button, sometimes it sends automatically

Didier

Hi,

Great, the application try to send the auto login, but it not 100% reliable depending of the web site. Can you give an web site that fail?

Could we get an option to Batch Edit the Tab/Group association? I really don't feel like changing the Tab association on 200+ sessions.

Thanks!

Don't worry, today I'm working on the batch edit feature and I will include this one.

Woohoo! Thanks!

Hi David,

It's not really web site but rather web interfaces : Astaro (www.astaro.com), ...

Never mind, the key button works well.

Another request for auto-login, could you add in the embedde window, near the key button, something to prevent autologin. The purpose of this is having auto-login set and generaly used but also having the opssibility to use another manual login.

Didier

Hi,

I'm not sure how I can do it, because you won't have the time to click it. What you can do is uncheck Auto login in the session properties. Maybe I miss understood what you mean.

another small bug.

Using the mmc module (AD users and computers) if I have an open sun window like search, when I open another tab - the sub window do not disappear when I move to the second window.

Hi David,

I contacted you last week with an issue I had with the data sources disappearing and you suggested I download the latest beta (5.9.0.16) to fix this issue. This appears to be working but another problem now exists, I keep the RemoteDesktopManager icon in my TaskBar (I am running Windows 7) and in version 5.9.0.0 I could click on the icon in the taskbar to open RDM and if RDM was already open it would maximize or minimize the window depending on the current state of the window. Now in 5.9.0.16 I can minimize RDM by clicking on the taskbar icon but it will not maximize until I go to the Notification Area of the taskbar and right click on the RDM small icon and click Maximize. Any chance you can restore the previous functionality?

Regards,

w33ds

@w33ds

It's weird, I'm unable to reproduce your bug. If you do a single click on the trayicon, does it restore ? Do you have it pinned or not ? I tried both pin and unpinned.

Hi David,

I just tried it on another Win7 machine and it works as expected, so it must be something wrong with my machine, I will uninstall and reinstall and see if that fixes the issue.

Thanks,

w33ds

@Snirh, can you send me a printscreen of what you mean ? support@devolutions.net

I've attached the screen shot for the problem.

The AD window is from the other tab (look in the top of the picture to see that I opened MMC of AD).

@snirh

I see, I will try to reproduce but if I understand correctly, the Active Directory tab come from an external process embedded ? If it's the case, I don't have access to minimize or hide the window. I will try to find a solution, but for now, I don't see any because I only have access to main window handle. Let me know if I miss something again.

i've a question to alternate hosts. how should the auto detect(ping) option work? as i can see you ping first and than open the vpn connection, for me, htere should be the vpn connection first and than the ping detection. and i would like to have a seperate context and dashboard menu to opn alternate hosts, and normal doubleclick/enter opens the connection to the normal host...

bug in "note on connection": if i cancel the the connection note, the vpn connection isn't closed automatically. i would like if you could first ask for the note, than log the vpn-connection and than log the session... for now its possible to open a connection without creating a log...

@Xanacas

Thank you for you two post, I added both of your bug / redesign to my todo list. I will take a look at them soon.

one more bug, the OK button is enabled if the note for connection window appears, even if i choose "note is requiered" and the textbox is empty.. just by defult, if i enter sth and delete it, the OK-button is disabled...

Very nice additions David. Just when I thought I did not need anymore features I get proved wrong. =)

Curious. What is the difference between a session specific credential and an embedded credential?

@xcentric

I have more ideas for the coming year, unfortunately I can't implement them all in the version 6.0. The difference between session specific credential and an embedded credential is very simple:

Sesssion specific credential: the credential are set in the connection specific settings, for example in the RDP tabpage or Citrix tab page... If you want to use the local username password with RDP, you must use the Session specific credential

Embedded credentials, if like an entry in the Credential Repository ( you can use Keepass for example) but this will not create a entry in the tree view. This mean that the setting will be saved directly in the session configuration with no external reference. This is very convenient if you want to use a specific settings with all the power of the credential entry. We will be adding more credential type (Password Safe and Windows Vault for example).

What is the MySQLDataSource add-on for? I extracted the DLL's to the installation folder, but I don't see any new sessions for MySQL other then GUI.

Also,

Need to update the Addon Manager:

1) Ability to "Install all Addons", or put a checkbox to each with a checkbox select above that column on the list so that they all, or the selected will be installed.

2) Need better Addon Support when a newer version is released and installed then what is on the Addon Manager "remote list". ProxyAddon, for example, has been upgraded from v1.0.0.6 to v2.0.0.2. I had v1.0.0.6 installed, but when I add the ProxyAddOn.dll to the installation folder, neither the version in Addon Manager changes, and I don't see anything new for that function/session. Is Addon Manager overriding the newere DLL?

Thanks!

@David,

I need some more clarification.

For instance when I add a user, domain and password as a session specific credential where is that credential stored? I realize for the session specific password I have a choice of the windows vault (which also stores the username and domain) or the database and if I choose database where is the username and domain stored then?

If I add an embedded credential I understand that the entire credential is stored inside the session.

@zim2323

The MySQLDataSource is a SQL connector for RDM. It allows RDM to connect and store session data inside a MySQL database.

@xcentric,

If you choose session specific, with RDP this could be in the Windows Vault, like you said or directly in the session also exactly like the embedded (encrypted also). The main reason for that is that the UI has already the field to enter a user name / password and I did not want to change the existing UI.

@zim2323

For the addon manager, we have a little problem in the beta, we update the SDK and this is why the list is out of sync. As soon as we release it, we will be able to update the Proxy Add-on.

The application is looking in two folders, one in documents and settings where the remotedestopmnanager.cfg is and the other place is in the installation folder. I suspect that you have the dll at the both side. The problem is that many user can't add files to program files, this is why we allow it to install it in the document and settings. But some add must be installed in the application directory (when they have dll dependency) and this is why they can't be intalled automtically by the add-on manager.

Wow, I must be an idiot or got my wires crossed for not understanding this.

You just described that the two credential methods are the same except where visually located. So I see no point for the embedded credential option if the username/domain and password are already stored in the session under the Connection > General tab if you choose to save the password in the database.

Could the reason possibly be in case you do not have a database? YOu want to store the embedded credential to whatever OTHER datasouce that is being used like cfg or xml?

The think you might be missing is that the embedded credentials offers more than just a user name / password. Take a look at the UI when you click it. You will be prompted with the credential entry dialog with all the supported stuff (KeePass, LastPass, ...). This would have be very difficult for me to integrate all these in all the existings session type or add-on and we are continuously adding more password manager.

2 bugs with the "session tools" :

- if I choose a template and than go back to command line it will shout that the template id is empty

- if I click on variables link on the buttom of the window the list is twice...

another thought, why not do a cmd command in a tabbed window also ? a lot of the command will be in cmd (for me anyway...)

Hi,

Thank you again for the bug report. For the command line in tabbed windows, there is a really really good reason why It's not here... I forgot to do it :) So expect that for the next update

But some add must be installed in the application directory (when they have dll dependency) and this is why they can't be intalled automtically by the add-on manager.

Thanks David!

I went through my installation folder and removed the DLL's that were there. I have moved them all to the \users\<username>\...etc... folder for RDM and everything looks to be working.

After doing this, Addon Manager still shows 1.0.0.6, but About list now shows 2.0.0.2. THANKS!!!

Also,

Not sure if this has already been suggested, or if there's a way to do this, but on the Quick Connect box, it would be nice to have more options then just for Remote Desktop. Maybe add a drop-down to choose between RDP, command line, telnet, etc. They could just use application defaults. Would be nice to also add a box/dropdown that allowed you to choose whether it would open embedded, full, seperate window, etc.

Keep up the great work!

One more thought for Quick Connect.

Allow us to assign a "custom" TAB that it attaches to, possibly through a second box or a default action in Options.

In other words, when I run a Quick Connect, I want all of those grouped in a TAB called "Quick Connect'. That way they are also seperated from everything else.

Options could give choice between TAB label, no TAB label, or TAB custom (current TAB, or something new).

Again, this could be done in Options that gets applied to all, or could be configured in the Quick Connect area on the toolbar with another box/option.

Thanks!

Hi,

For the quick connect, there is already a nice option. You can create your own template and use the variable $HOST$ or more specifically $QUICK_CONNECT$. For the tab label, this could be included in the template but I added it to my todo list
