This entry explains how to Create a (RDP) Remote Desktop Connection Shortcut on Windows 7, XP, & Server 2003.

Nobody likes to type an IP or network address if you do not have to. At work we have so many IP's it's hard to track, whats what.

I personally like to use mRemote to manage network connections, but here is a simple way just to create a remote desktop connection so that all you have to do is double click an icon for remote access.

How to Create a Remote Desktop Connection Shortcut
  • Go to your desktop
  • Right click on it
  • Create new shortcut
  • In the Type the location of the item enter this
  • mstsc.exe /v:192.168.0.111 /w:800 /h:600
  • Be sure to change the 192.168.0.111 to the IP that you wish to connect to remotely
  • Notice the w:800 & h:600 - This is the width and the height of the remote desktop connection window upon double clicking. You can change these values at any time to suit your window.
  • To go full screen with your remote desktop connection shortcut simply remove w:800 /h:600 and replace it with /f

    I hope this helps. If you have any tips or tricks on remote desktop connection shortcuts please leave a comment.

    david How to Restrict Access To Network Drives in on Windows Dec 28th, 2009 4:01:04 pm - Subscribe
    Entry explains How To Restrict Access To Network Drives in on Windows. Do you have a shared or public pc that many users use? If so you can restrict them from external network drives using the local group policy.

    (Windows 7 & Vista only)

    How To Restrict Access To Network Drives in on Windows
    1. First type gpedit.msc in the search box of the Start Menu and hit Enter.
    2. Now go to User Configuration \ Administrative Templates \ Windows Components \ Windows Explorer. Then on the right side under Setting, double click on Prevent access to drives from My Computer.
    3. Select Enable then under Options from the drop down menu you can restrict a certain drive, a combination of drives, or restrict them all. The main drive you would probably want to restrict is the C:\ drive or which ever lettered drive Windows is installed on. Restricting all drives means they can’t access the CD or DVD drive, and cannot use a flash drive if they need to get files from it. Note: This setting won’t prevent users from using programs that access the local drives.
    4. The restrictions take effect immediately, no restart is required. When a user opens up My Computer they’ll be able to see which drives are listed, but when they try to access a restricted drive, they’ll get the following error message.
    5. Keep in mind that Local Group Policy allows you to customize several settings for how you want to administer your machine. Restricting access to certain drives in addition to other security and access measures, can help keep a shared computer stable and secure.

    aeonity New Anti-Spam Security on Aeonity Dec 19th, 2009 7:37:48 pm - Subscribe
    Hello all,

    We have recently implemented some new anti-spam security measures which we hope are not too much of an inconvenience. We are utilizing the services of ReCaptcha to help thwart spam. This new system has been implemented on the registration process, comment process and the creating a blog process.

    Along with that we have removed the probationary link section, instead of no post being added the administrators are alerted and can then choose what they want to do. We hope that with the new reCaptcha system in place that the toll of filtering spammers out is far less. We do appreciate you utilizing our services and hope that this helps Aeonity and not hinders it. Please feel free to contact us with any issues that may arise from errors etc.

    Thank you,
    Aeonity Internet Team
