Hi, I was wondering why there are no options on the remote dektop connection
window when using remote desktop web connection? I was wondering if it is
possible to transfer files between client and host using remote desktop web
connection?
 
You need to download and install the advanced RDP web connection file,
created by Jeffrey Randow a former MVP, from here...

http://www.schinning.net/FreeTools/tabid/54/Default.aspx

Go to the "Clients" section and look for the "Advanced Remote Desktop Web
Connection" entry. Install it on your RDP host PC, ie. the one you want to
connect to remotely. You might consider making a backup of your existing
default.htm file just in case you want to fall back at some point...

Hi,

Thank you for your help, that worked great when I figured it out, i'm a bit
of a novice. Cheers.
 
Does anyone have any idea how Jeff Randow's 'Advanced Remote Desktop Web
Connection' works, or how to configure it? It looks to be a simple HTML page
or template but it comes with no instructions as to where to place it or how
to make it work. For example, does it have to be installed on both the client
and host?

I also notice it is preconfigured to port 3389 for RD and that it can be
changed to a different port if desired but I was under the impression Remote
Web Connection utilized TCP port 80 by default (or am I confusing IIS
requirements with RWC ones?).

In any case, no matter what I try I can't seem to make any headway with it.
I do have RWC configured and working properly, but would like to have the
ability to transfer files between host and client, something ARDWC appears to
provide. I have looked everywhere I can think of on the schinning.net site
for additional info, and also on the Web and Google but I have yet to find a
thing that explains more.

If anyone can provide a little info more on ARDWC, I would appreciate it.
With so little background information available, it makes you wonder if
anyone is using it.

Thanks. JM
