Hi Peter,

thanks for the feedback. We are looking it that. Getting the idle and connection time in the dashboard will be implemented in V2.

Your second request is a bit trickier. For once, displaying a RDP dashboard on a folder level in the next version may not make sense, since a folder in V2 can have other connection types in it (like Web Page, VNC later on, etc.). Right now we are investigating, how we can make that work in situations like that, so if you have an idea, let me know.

cheers,
Stefan

Hi Peter,
thanks for the feedback. My concerns were more about the UI look and feel. Of course, there's the technical challenge to poll all the session info from all RDP connections inside a folder, but how should I expose this information. Connections will have a “dashboard” view, pretty much like you see it today in Royal TS and folder will always display the contents in the typical explorer style list view. Putting a dashboard on a folder view seems to be confusing and inconsistent, especially when only a subset of the dashboard views will have the capability to display aggregated data from multiple connections. We are mulling around some ideas to use a special kind of task which allows you pass on multiple objects. The task will then be responsible to gather all the information. An approach like this will be beneficial in other situations as well…
cheers
Stefan
