Hi
I need a remote desktop client that supports 'console' mode.

To access my win2003 server I use XP RDC with the /console option.

Is there a client for the n800 that supports this ?

Quick overview here:

Remote to the 2003 machine that is your target, and then go to start - run "mstsc.exe -console" and create another RDP session to the same machine this time on the winstation 0 (console). You can also accomplish the same by remoting into a 'Gateway' machine and then opening RDP Console sessions to the other servers. You will need the proper permissions and Remote settings for multiple sessions, Google this if needed.

Sorry not sure if I understand this.
I have apps running on the active windows 2003 console.
I need to interact with the from the N800.

NOT start another console on the windows 2003 server.

Thanks

Thanks.

How do I start rdesktop -0 SERVER_IPADDRESS from the n800 ?

Can I create a shortcut like that ?
Thanks

I don't know how to make a shortcut, but you can install osso-xterm and type it out.

I am wrong. The client doesn't seem to take command line input, so the -0 option doesn't work. If I figure it out, I'll post it.

Anybody figure out how to move the mouse cursor around in rdesktop? With either a BT mouse (which sounds unlikely, given what these forums turn up) or with a keyboard? It sounds like turning on MouseKeys in Windows might work, but I don't have a numpad on my keyboard. Boo.
