My company is currently using Microsoft Terminal Server to access an application on the main server. However, I want to user the TSAC to allow access to this program via a browser and our Intranet. I have downloaded and installed the TSAC from http://www.microsoft.com/windows2000/downloads/recommended/TSAC/default.asp ,however, from looking at the sample files and the documentation, I am unable to figure out how to simply script it to start a specific program(something very easy to do in the regular TServer setup).
Does anyone know how to do this?
Keep in mind that I do not need to simply provide a path to an exe to launch. My current setup in TServer Client Connection is:

Program Path and File Name = D:\Forward\Unt72\bin\Something.exe /ASN=D:\Forward\Unt72\BlaBla\BlaLocal.ASN /INI=D:\Forward\Unt72\BlaBla\BlaLocal.ini TPS

Start In = D:\Forward\Usys72\BlaBla

I would greatly appreciate anyone's help who has had experience with this. Thanks.

Thanks for the suggestion. I have read that article, and I have gotten notepad to work. However, when I try to get more complicated than that, it just does not work. Anyone else have any experience with this particular situation?

Hi,

I kinda figured you would have... How about this document?

http://www.univ-ovidius.ro/TSWeb/webclient.doc

(remove spaces from the above URL)

At least it mentions the existance of the following property...

WorkDir

As in the notepad example...

if MsTsc.SecuredSettingsEnabled then
MsTsc.SecuredSettings.StartProgram = "notepad.exe"
MsTsc.SecuredSettings.WorkDir = "C:\somewhere"
else
msgbox "Cannot access secured setting (startprogram) in the current browser zone"
end if

I assume your application WILL run as an activeX control!?!? Without the need for virtual channels to be set up - specifying DLLs or something?

Cheers,
Tim.
