Both I and a Friend are working on a Visual Basic Remote Desktop Client, we've got as far as laying it out the way we want it but are unsure of how to code the program. Can anyone shed some light upon what we could use to make our program generate an ID which another user can enter at their site to connect to the computer?

Everything is ok except the WTSClientBuildNumber property. The WTSClientBuildNumber that I get is 5875288,but it should be 6001.I use the 6.0.6001 RDC for my test.Can anyone tell me the problem.
The following is my sample code
If WTSQuerySessionInformation2(ptrOpenedServer, active_session, WTS_INFO_CLASS.WTSClientBuildNumber, istr, returned) = True Then

I am trying to create a smart client (multi table manager). I didn't want to make it a MDI app, so I used a TabControl to host each table UI. I am having problems with the BindingNavigator control. When I drag the table grid from the DataSources to the top tabpage, the designer adds all the needed controls. However, on the other tabpages it doesn't add the BindingNavegator. So, is this the proper behavior or am I doing something I am not supposed to do? What would be the best way on doing this? Do I need to make it a MDI app.?
View 3 RepliesI have a problem with a large application that consists of windows forms mainly, but some WPF windows and controls (we also use DevExpress controls v9.1). The problem is that the application sometimes hangs when it runs in a remote desktop session, and that session gets locked due to inactivity, and the user comes back and unlocks the session. The hang seems very similar to the hangs you get when accessing GUI controls from a none GUI thread, but I'm pretty sure that's not what causes the problem. (We had a lot of those problems earlier, and have fixed all multithreading problems we were able to find. And the hangs now never occures when the application runs outside the remote desktop environment.)
I've done a lot of research on the problem but I've still not found a clear point to what causes the problem. However, I think there might be a problem related to some combination of remote desktop and .NET framework. The reason for this is posts like this:

I want to be able to view the desktop in almost-realtime from a computer on my lan (its part of my business) As this is a business situation teamviewer is not free, but id rather like to make my own server and client anyway - will be fun! I need to know the best way of sending the desktop fast to the second computer. I know of several ways to do this: take image of screen be it jpeg/bmp or whatever and send it as many times a second as i can (too slow) take an image of the screen and compare it with the previous image and send the bytes that have changed. take multiple images of the screen compare with previous images and send through the bytes that have changed.
View 1 RepliesIs there anyway, in a program, to detect if a program is being run from inside a remote desktop session or if the program is being run normal in .NET 2.0? What I'm trying to do is, I create a timeclock application which will clock a person in and out and keep track. But this particular person, I suspect, is remoting into their computer at work, from home, and clocking in and out.
View 5 RepliesI am trying to overcome a problem I am having with remote desktop.Basically I have 2 machines running in different locations. I use remote desktop to access one of them (the "Remote Machine") from the other.("My PC")The "Remote Machine" is performing automated tasks that require the screen to be active, not the user login screen.
When I do so the Remote Machine logs off and presents the normal windows login screen.When I am finished reviewing the remote machine I log off and then I need to log back into the "remote" machine. It has no monitior but I can log in by pressing the enter key which sends a keypress to log into the user account( there is only one). In fact I do this the other way around. I press the enter key on the "Remote Machine" and this logs the user back in - terminating the remote session on "MyPC".
The problem is I have to physically go to the Remote Machine to press this enter key.This is a hassle - One solution is to remotely re-boot the remote pc but the lead time involved is too great.I am unable to fix this problem by tweaking setting or registry hacks so I guess the solution must be to cause the remote user to log back in programatically.I am an experienced VB user but I have never worked outside the windows environment. Ideally I would like to programmtically send a keystroke "{enter}" to the login screen but this doesn't work.

View 2 RepliesHow do I check the connectivity to Remote Desktop through Visual Basic (if possible). I would like to run a program checking if servers is up running normally.

View 9 RepliesI created an application that opens certain Microsoft Windows built in functions depending on what button you use. I have Text Fields setup for certain things like IP/URL, Username, Password, Port, Service. Depending on what function you want it pulls data from these fields.
When someone clicks on Remote Desktop I would like it to pull from the IP/URL, Username and Passwords fields. Right now it pulls only from the IP/URL field. How can I have it populate the Remote Desktop login, pulling the data from my Username and Password fields?
I have found a Login DLL that someone wrote and also found a Remote Desktop DLL but I do not know how to tie these into my program. I somewhat know the process of using a DLL in a VB project but I don't know how to tie these in.
FYI, I would like to be able to make my application a single executable instead of having multiple files that are installed by an Setup program.
Another feature of my program is being able to stop and start a service. I can use Taskkill and have it pull the username and password just because Taskkill has this built in with switches. This is ok for ending tasks but when I try to use SC to start the tasks, it only works locally because the remote server has a different username and password. SC does not have a switch for username and password.
Also another FYI, I do not want to use a 3rd party software that may not be on the remote computer/server. i.e. PSKill, PSExec, VNC or another program..... unless these can be imported into my single executable program and not have to be on the computer. As I mentioned, I do not like having to rely on 3rd party applications.
