hello and thanks for reading this,
rdp over remote.utilities is a killer feature. from what I can see it uses ssh tunneling or stunnel.
for security reasons, I always change the default rdp port from 3389 to something, as per this registry entry
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server\WinStations\RDP-Tcp\PortNumber.
I guess the remote.utilities does not check for the correct port number.
so is there a way to get remote.utilities to use a custom port number?
also, how can I customize the rdp settings, such as screen size, full screen, smart scaling, etc.
is there a way to use a .rdp file
thanks much,
david

Hello David,
Thank you for your message.
I'm glad to hear you figured out the port issue.
1. In the main Viewer window right-click on the Host icon and choose Properties.
2. Go to the tab Connection -> RDP.
3. Click Configure.
4. The native RDP window will open where you can customize the connection settings.
Hope that helps.
