Hello,

I connect some computers to a terminal server through the Internet. Users
need to save files on their own computers.
How can they do that ? Is it possible ?

Thanks

Jerome

It sounds like they're connecting with TSWeb, yes? If so then you can enable local drive redirection by editing the default.htm file as follows

'Device redirection option
MsRdpClient.AdvancedSettings2.RedirectDrives = FALSE (Change to TRUE
MsRdpClient.AdvancedSettings2.RedirectPrinters = TRU
MsRdpClient.AdvancedSettings2.RedirectPorts = FALS
MsRdpClient.AdvancedSettings2.RedirectSmartCards = FALS

Your Terminal Server MUST be running Windows Server 2003 for this option to work.

If they are connecting via Remote Desktop Client, this option can be enabled via "mstsc -> Options -> Local Resources -> Local Devices -> Disk Drives

Hello again,

I change MsRdpClient.AdvancedSettings2.RedirectDrives to TRUE on my TSWEB
(Windows 2000 server). When i connect, a window asks me if i want to connect
my local drives.
If i do that, I'm not able to see my local drives ?? Is it because of
Windows 2000 ? Where should i see them ?

Thanks for your help

Jerome

The ActiveX Client installed by Internet Explorer supports drive redirection, but your 2000 TS does NOT. If TSWeb is connecting to 2003 or XP Pro you'll see the redirected local drives in My Computer.

Jerome,

Since we are using TSWeb and the ActiveX Control I know of no way to do this without the server being 2003.

If we were not using the ActiveX Control I can think of two things you could try. The Windows 2000 Resource Kit came with
two utilities that would add the ability to redirect the clients drives into the terminal session and allow you to copy from the
terminal session and paste on the client. The articles below talk a little more about these two utilities.
