Greetings,

In using RDP to connect to a Win 2003 machine via a
terminal client (running Win XP CE), does anyone know of a
way to make function key combos work?

e.g.: Windows-E, or even Crtl-Alt-Del

For some reason, RDP doesn't appear to send these. Does
anyone know of a way to make them work?

Thanks.

Thanks for that.

Is there a way to map the normal keys to those keys? - Our
users are using thin-clients, so to all intents and
purposes see nothing but the session. Ideally we'd like
them to use the standard keys.

Cheers
 
The newst RDP client allows key combinations to be sent to
the server that than intercepteed by the local machine
(although ctrl-alt-del is an exception). What thin client
are you using and what version of the RDP client are they
using?
