RDCMAN v3.21

A list of known bugs in RDCMan v3.21...

  • "Recent" Built-in group doesn't work.
  • Connects using the credentials for the RD Gateway (rather than the credentials configured for the server). (It appears that if the Gateway credentials aren't valid for the remote server then the credentials for the remote server are used).
  • "Connect Server As..." is ignored! This might be due to the above!
  • The hotkeys are not passed through to the Remote Desktop Server (for example, if the Remote Desktop has focus and I press the "Windows" key then my workstation shows the Start Menu - rather than my Remote Desktop showing the Start Menu).
  • If you are Full Screen mode and press "escape" within your Remote Desktop then you are exited out of Full Screen mode (rather than passing the Escape keypress to the remote session). Might be related to the above!
  • Clicking the URL in the About Box doesn't work.

I am staying on version v3.12 for now. Sadly the last two releases have been very poor.

Personally I think it's worth pulling this release until it's been fixed.

I hope to see these issues fixed because this application is REALLY useful!

Many thanks!

Posting in hope that it is seen by the developers! Fingers crossed!

    Does anyone still use a terminal server farm?
    How do you connect to the farm broker?
    There used to be a "connect to admin session" checkbox, but it's gone in version 3.22.
    Are they actually improving the product, or are they trying to kill it off?

    I'm experiencing the following:

    Connecting through a RDP Gateway is extremly slow and only shows a blank screen.

    Switching back to previous version fixes this. Also stored credentials get corrupted with this version.
