Default Prevent user coming out of full screen


I am using the latest ActiveX RDP client to allow a user
to log onto a W2K terminal server from an NT4 client via a
web page. The client connects in full screen mode, however
I would like to prevent the user from either minimising
the client or coming out of full screen mode (ideally by
removing the connection bar at the top of the screen). Is
there any way of achieving this?

Boy I sure don't think so. The full screen/windowed mode is strictly client
side - the Terminal Server has no idea if you are windowed or not.

Hi Venger

We were wanting to do this configurtion on the client-
side, when starting the ActiveX control on a web page.

Thanks for your help though.

I imagine you could modify the Active X page to force it to full screen, but
you'll never change the ability to Ctrl-Alt-Break between them without
rewriting the actual client piece itself...

Additionally, most browser security settings prevent the initial session
from resizing to full-screen...
