WM6's Much-Improved Remote Desktop Mobile
Posted by Janak Parekh in "SOFTWARE" @ 01:00 PM
"As has already been pointed out, Windows Mobile 6 (Crossbow) has a really improved TS client: Remote Desktop Mobile (RDM). It's far better than its predecessor in almost every respect: it supports full screen, high-color (16 bit) mode, (selectable) remote desktop-to-client sound transfer, excellent two-way (textual) clipboard synchronization and local username / password input, which will, then, be remembered (that is, you don't need to input your login credentials to the Windows log-in box but can do the same locally.)"
The above is Menneisyys's summary of the new Remote Desktop Mobile client in WM6 (as part of a much larger article about remote PC access from a WM device). Terminal Services Client was long-neglected, so I'm very happy to see that Microsoft has seen fit to upgrade it to a full-fledged RDP client. As a system administrator, I'm looking forward to having a tool like this handy. Now, let's just hope Connection Mangl...er...Manager has been cleaned up, making VPN access a bit easier to set up. ;)
