Sample Enabling Remote Desktop tool
Remote Desktop
is a Microsoft feature that allows you to remotely access any Windows 2003 server.
Unfortunately, Remote Desktop is disabled by default during installation, which can lead to problems
accessing the system without physically being present in front of the se
rver. HP SIM allows you to
create a custom TDEF to enable remote desktop on selected targets as long as the selection is running
Windows 2003 server operating system. The following example demonstrates the ability of the TDEF
to create a menu item called E
nable Remote Desktop.
