Default Filetransfer via RDP connection under Windows 2003


Hello everybody,

I wonder if there is a way to transfer files via the rdp channel of a
Terminal Server Session like its possible with Citrix Clients.
I found 2 things from microsoft (rdpclip extension and drmapsrv), but
was not able to make it work and they only seems to work with RDP client
version < 5.1.
Then I found a tool from analogx but the performance is very bad.
Anybody here has a good solution to do something similiar like I
can do with Citrix Client-Server?

Regards

Default RE: Filetransfer via RDP connection under Windows 2003

These are NOT needed under Windows Server 2003, as this capability is built-in, so long as cleints are using Remote Desktop Client 5.1 or higher with "Disk Drives" check in the "Local Devices" section

Terminal Server does NOT automatically assign them a drive letter like in a Citrix ICA Session, but rather adds them to My Computer in a section labled "Disk from remote desktop connection". Terminal Server also does not have a GUI where you can select which client drives to connect, it does them all by default.

If you require a mapped drive letter you can map them via
NET USE DriveLetter: \\tsclient\

Or remove them via
NET USE \\tsclient\C /delet
