It's been several years since I tried to get this to work. However, unless things have changed (which I'm guessing they haven't), you can't make it auto- login. The password is provided in a clear text form in the rdp file. Unfortunately, the windows and mac RDC apps won't use the clear text v

Gene I'm relatively new with VCL and I may be wrong. I could not find any options in preferences for RDP file to include password. Having password in RDP file would make it easier and if it's possible it would be great. I would like to have this option as well and will be looking into the code

Thanks Dmitri, Wanted to confirm if its possible by using the rdp file, users can auto login with the mstsc (would be preferred over entering password manually). Thanks for such a quick reply and answer to my question. Take care, Gene Drexel University On Tue, 2011-11-22 at 12:47 -0500, Dmitr

Gene, Username/password would be on your reservation page. Username is Admin, password is generated for each reservation and you need to type it manually when open RDP. Thanks. On Nov 22, 2011, at 12:32 , Gene Lui wrote: > Hi there, > > I wonder if any of you bright individuals can help me
