Nonono ... You understood quite well. Would be great to start ik once, when firing up rdm.

Seems like a plan :-)

Hi,

Thnx for taking time to answer my question.

I do use OpenVPN Connect indeed.

One of the issues I have is that my openvpn connection requires authentication with a fixed password to which I add an OTP.

Now I have about a 150 servers I need to connect to via Openvpn AND via jumphost (The jumphost can only be reached via vpn).

Hence I usually first start the vpn and then start rdm sessions which al have this jumphost configured in their settings.

If I add such and rim file to my connections, How is this going to work? Can I make it ask for the password? And if the first session connected to the vpn, do the other sessions attempt to do the same?

Cheers

Thx for the reply.

I am pretty new at MacOS, so to ben honest, I do not know of a preferred manner yet ;)

However, as a suggestion in between: Why not make a pop-up window (which also can be reached via the menu). This window contains an arbitrary runlet. I mean, it is a list of things a user want to be able to easily insert/run (macro/snippet/whatever). In that case there is just one shortcut to assign. Then a small pop-up comes op, the user picks an entry with keyboard (arrows and enter) or mouse, popup vanishes and the command/text/whatever is inserted.

Another possible thing is to limit the list of possible shortcuts to the maximum number of 12, namelijk just <ctrl>+<option>+<F-key>

In that case no unlimited number of possibilities to detect.

Cheers,

Hi,

according to this blog: https://webdevolutions.blob.core.windows.net/blog/pdf/custom-shortcut-now-available-in-remote-desktop-manager-for-mac.pdf custom shortcuts are available in RDM. However, what I apparently still cannot do is assign a shortcut to a specific Macro . Or to a credential item to insert a password in a session.

Passwords are used very often inside sessions, like for use with sudo commands for example, and since pwd requirements are getting more and more complex it would be great to be able to insert it just with a shortcut.

I added a shortcut to 'execute macro' in the user settings, but I cannot assign a specific item to this, so it does nothing.

Am I missing something? if not, this would seriously save time and frustration.

Hi,

At the moment I have OpenVPN connect running separately in macOS Monterey. However, I would like RDM to handle this as well. Is this already possible? Most handy would be I if I could just have it connect when ram starts, But I can live with starting it myself. I don't want to define seperate vpn connections to the same access server per ssh session I start .

Regards.

Hi,

I am aware I am bumping an ancient thread, But I too am looking to step over from MobaXterm to RDM (Mainly because Moba is not available on Mac, but on windows I though about leaving it as well because of the may bugs and glitches in there. However some of the features just rock ;-). )

Am running version 2022.2.5.0 (free) on Mac and want to use this with ssh sessions. Is this in there (cannot find it and the screens posted above seem a bit outdated to me)? If not, could this be done. If only I could just right click and choose 'open scp window here'. Another very cool, related feature of Moba is that in that scp window on can just choose 'edit' and a local copy is created and monitored and as soon as locally you save, Mona transfers this to the remote file as well (of course only if the remote rights permit you to write)

Cheers
