Hello James,

that's great news after so many years. I'm a litle bit touched right now.

In the Screenshot it looks like a rroperty windows of a connection entry.

Will it be possible to configure the custom DNS Server in the above folder?

Cause normally you have to inherit the custom DNS Server when the customer with a Domain has more than 1 Client ;-)

Kind regards,

Reiner

Hi Arthur,

thank you.

Forums work is just for helping other's. And I do not know another forum with so many and quick devolper's response.

But if you come for some reason to the very north of germany a beer would be great.

On the other hand if you do not know were to buy the Remote Desktop Manager, you can find my company KUCUK in the reseller list.

Kind regards,

Reiner

Thank you.

And I am glad to here from Arthur that his problem is solved too, 
so the chance that he uses RDM still in a couple of years is growing.

It is a very good tool to handle many different connection types.

Kind regards,
Reiner

Hi Min, James, David and Arthur,

it works like a charm.

I didn't knew the folder types yet.

Now I have a folder Type Domain - like Min suggested - with a domain name entry and the custom field#1 (named DNS-Server).

In the entry for the connection the Host-Field only contains the shortname of the machine and in the 'Before Open'-Event it looks like:

So, my request from 2012 is solved now!

Additional question:

In the domain folder I recognized the field 'Domaincontroller' but I didn't found a Variable for that.

Than you very much.

Kind regards,

Reiner

Hello James,

If we can save the DNS-Server in a folder custom field like this:

And the Server entry looks like:

Then it could be possible to overwrite the host in the Before Open-Event with something like:

$RDM.Conection.Host = (Resolve-DnsName -Name $RDM.Connection.Host -Type A -Server $DOMAIN_CUSTOM_FIELD1$).IPAddress

But what is the right syntax?

Thank's in advance.

Reiner

Hello David,

do you have an example how to take a customer field from a RDM-Group-Folder instead of "test"?

It would help to get IP-Adresses for the DNS-Servers

For me as the original poster the problem was solved with Windows 2016 Server because since then the DNS Server suported conditional forwarding.

I now can just enter the FQDN for the host and the normal DNS functionality will do the rest.

Do you really have different customers with the same FQDN domain name?

Kind regards,

Reiner

Hi,

a customer of mine uses DHCP for his Clients and like others 192.168.1.0/24 for his IP adresses.

To reach his clients I configured NAT.

Because the leases can change I want do use a DNS resolution to connect to the client via a dameware session.

The DNS naturally resolves an IP like 192.168.1.15.

Is there a possibility to change this with an script like

Host = Replace($IP$,'.1.','.20.')

?

Thank you for your help.

For me there are too many entry points for scripts (and I haven't used one yet) to see clear for what I can use them.

Coding would not be a problem.

Greetings,

Reiner

Hi,

that worked for me. thank you.

Is it possible in footer logs to rearrange the columns?

I use this logs to determine which co-worker is already connected with a machine.

Therefor my favorite columns order is Date-Username-Description ...

I'm not sure if I unterstand which checkbox you mean.

Is it that one I am missing? (Or do you see it in my screenshot?)

Or is that Show group details somewhere else (hidden in the options)?

Maybe you can help me with a screenshot too ;)

thank's but why isn't it refreshing automatically?

Sorry, than I translated it wrong.

Here is the screenshot. In german it is called 'Protokolle'.

You can see a marked machine but an empty detail pane below.

I use Version 9.2.9.0 and try to use the protocol view to see which of my colleges uses a specific machine.

My problem:

If I select an entry in the dashboard the docked protocol view does not show anything.

I have to use the context menu - view - protocol to fill the docked protocol view with entries.

Shouldn't this be done automaticly?

On a second PC I shave seen a checkbox under the date-filter (last 7 days). This checkbox is not visible on my PC.

Is there an option for that somewhere?

Thank's for your help.

I'm not firm with VPN Entries.

If each admin create his own VPN Entry, is it possible to use this entry in a "shared" remote client entry (using dameware)?

What is a advanced data source? (We are on a SQL 2008 R2 Server)

Private Vault? A first look did not bring that up to me (and I use Version 9.2.4.0 ;-)

Is there a possibility with scripting to change the remote client entry?

The beginners - using RDM for years - always have so basic questions ;-)

Thank you both for helping me.

Hi,

I'm sure this is already be discussed in this forum but I didn't found it.

I have a multi user/administrator environment using RDM.

For one customer I have one openVPN.cer file for each administrator.

Each Client establishes his own VPN tunnel to our customers gateway.

How can I save an administrator specific file information for the openVPN logon?

A perfect way would be when the filename could be stored within the profile.

Any ideas?

Hi,

I didn't not understood what was the problem,

but it's fixed in the next version.

Thank you for support.

Hello,

I was wondering why the 'use VNC viewer' option is grayed by a dameware mini remote control entry.

Dameware itself can connect to the client via vnc, so I don't think I have to install a vnc-client on my machine.

How can I activate the option?

Thanks in advance

Hi,

is there a from RemoteDesktop Manager supported password manager which supports multiuser access and has an iPhone-App?

Thanks for any hints

Hi,

thank you.

Hi,

I have multiple customers to support with RDM.

Some of these have a DHCP Server running so the IP addresses of the clients are kind of "randomly".

Is there a possibility that RDM asks a DNS server that is somewhere entered in the session details?

My own DNS server doesn't know all the clients I support, the IP addresses are changing but the DNS server of my customer would know it.

Have you got a hint how I can solve this problem other then looking up the IP address manually doing a 'nslookup <clientname> <CustomerDNS>'?

Thanks in advance

Reiner

Thanks for the hint.

With that program I can debug the performance of Remotedesktopmanager?

With the RDM startet the created desktop link takes 7 seconds to start the remote session.

I will give it a try.

Oh, I will first check, if I have already the latest version installed.

I can have a look with the SQL Profiler or what do you mean with 'profiling'?

Hi David,

are there news about getting the Commandline startup faster if the program is already running?

What about the reuse idea?

My program reuses his own instances himself, but RDM isn't a .Net development, isn't it?

Otherwise I can help you out, with some Events ;-)

kind regards

Hi David,

thank you for this feature.

My own Customer-tool comes up on incoming phone-calls and now the remote-session is only one click away.

There are only two points, I would ask:

- to start a remote-session using commandline parameters is kind of slow, although the RDM is started already.

Is it possible that you catch the running application and use the commandline parameters there?

In version 6.5 it feels like the program starts a new instance, connect himself to the sql-server and then starts the remote-session. On my machine this takes about 20 seconds...

- for me and my program the messagebox that now a remote-session will be startet is not nessessary. Have you got a commandline parameter to supress this box?

Thank you in advance and

greetings from germany
