Royal TS 1.0
Nice tool ;-)
This is a replacement for the standard Terminal Services Snap-In with some additional features. Since Windows 2003 Server Edition's Terminal Services now provide a way to remote control the interactive session like in Windows XP, the Terminal Services Snap-In cannot connect to the servers console. Besides, if an administrator remotely controls the interactive console (e.g. with the Windows XP RDP Client you can connect to the server's console using the /console switch), he locks the real interactive session. This little app reads out all currently available sessions and warns you if currently someone else is connected to the console.

- Organize multiple connections in one file
- Organize connections in different categories

Royal TS checks for write permission and disables the config menu

- External Window Mode
- Smart Size Mode
- Set different connection settings for each connection like
Redirection, Color Depth, Window Size, Window Mode, ... - Change target RDP Port
(this KB Article contains information how to change the listening port) - Passwords can be stored with user credentials (encrypted)
- Connect to interactive console (only for supported platforms)
Windows Server 2003 and Windows XP are supporting this feature at this time.
Other platforms ignore the flag. - Session information display. See who is how connected.
Feel free to download and test this small piece of software and any comments and suggestions are welcome.
