This one can simply not recollect any of that one using such a word within memory.

Can I say neck of the woods or is that again drifting too far into the realm of the colloquial? I wonder if you've been writing and reviewing too much or perhaps I've disturbed something in your heritage[1]? :-) "Of that Ilk" is a phrase which occurs in a number of Scottish titles[1]. It means "of the same", e.g. Sir Malcolm Drummond of that Ilk means Sir Malcolm Drummond of Drummond. However it has been extended to mean "type" or "same". Some consider this usage a corruption.[2] Fowler's Modern English Usage comments that this search for novelty is much less excusable than an Englishman not knowing what a Scottish word means. "This entry is from Wikipedia, the leading user-contributed encyclopedia. It may not have been reviewed by professional editors" [3] I guess my usage of it (ilk) comes from my ancestors as I heard it used frequently where I grew up. [2] MBS? [3] See [2] I probably have the references and footnotes all screwed up but I am not a professional editor (see[2] or[3]) nor do I play one on TV :-) LOL -----Original Message----- From: Michael B.

Recently I stumbled across something on codeplex called Terminals by accident that is similar to mRemote in its basic feature set but much more feature rich. I've come to like it a lot better. One cool thing was that it auto-discovered the plethora of .rdp files I have on my HD and added them to the console automagically. If you use a program of this ilk, it's definitely worth a look. http://www.codeplex.com/Terminals Blurb from the developer's blog- Terminals is a multi-protocol tabbed interface for remote connections. Right now it supports all of these connection types: 1. RDP - Microsoft's Remote Desktop aka Terminal Services 2. VNC - Virtual Network Computing 3. VMRC - Virtual Machine Remote Control 4. RAS - Remote Access Service (VPN, Dialup) 5. Telnet - Telecommunication Network 6. SSH - Secure Shell 7. ICA Citrix - Independent Computing Architecture Other features include: 1. Ability to import files such as MuRD and RDP files. 2. Tagging connections (grouping) 3. Shortcuts (to external tools) and Favorites 4. Some toolbar customization 5. Full Screen mode, multiple screen sizes and color depths supported 6. Minimize to tray 7. Single application instance 8. Execute before connect 9. Completely secure password storage 10. Screen capture of entire terminal window -----Original Message----- From: Andy Ognenoff [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, February 11, 2009 8:40 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: vRD 2009 I'm sure most that use VisionApp vRD have already tried out the new version but if you haven't, it's worth it. They combined mRemote with vRD. http://www.visionapp.com/vRD.html - Andy O. ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
