From: No Spam on 9 Aug 2010 23:49 What is Royal TS? Royal TS allows you to connect to other Windows machines using RDP* (Remote Desktop Protocol). Enjoy a simple and easy way to organize, connect and switch between remote desktops. If you are a system engineer or administrator responsible for managing multiple servers, Royal TS will make your life much more easier. * RDP (or Terminal Services) is included in Windows 2000 Server and Professional, Windows Server 2003 Editions, Windows 2008 Servers as well as in Windows XP and Windows Vista. Terminal Services must be enabled/installed. Organize Multiple Connections Royal TS allows you to organize multiple remote desktop connections in one single file. You can put one or more connections into a folder to categorize your connections. Sort your connections and/or folders in the navigation tree automatically or manually using Drag & Drop to keep things organized the way you want. You can also bulk-edit and bulk-remove multiple items at the same time. Get Session Information Royal TS can retrieve the current user sessions from a remote host*. For system engineers this feature is very useful, as it shows if there is already someone connected, or left a session disconnected. Further you can also send a message to an existing session or even reset a session (which is basically a forced log out). This is handy because for remote administration RDP allows only 2 concurrent sessions and 1 console session at the same time. * RPC communication between Royal TS and the remote machine, as well as appropriate credentials are required. Protect Your Files You can store username, domain and even the password for each connection. When credentials are provided you can also enable "Autologon". This way you just double-click a connection or select "Connect" and you will be logged in automatically on the remote machine. To provide a secure way to store your credentials you have the possibility to apply strong encryption to your stored passwords or even encrypt the whole file content. Royal TS uses strong, state of the art, industry standard Rijndael 256 bit encryption. Protected documents can only be opened when you provide the password you used to encrypt the document. Remote Desktops Embedded or in an External Window You can use Royal TS to open a remote desktop session in an external window or open a session embedded in the application window. You can control this behavior for each connection individually. You can even change the Window Mode while connected to a session. Using the change menu in the navigation tree or the system menu of an external window you can easliy move an embedded session to an external window or back from external window to an embedded session. This is very handy on multi-monitor setups when you quickly need to compare some settings between two servers. Royal TS keeps track which connection is active by showing a green connection icon in the navigation tree. Clicking an active connection brings up the connection in the application window (if embedded), or brings up the external window. http://www.code4ward.net/main/RoyalTS/Overview.aspx

Am I missing the freeware here? It looks like the author chose to licence it as shareware with a limitation on use for free. This seems to be becoming popular. Anyone know why? "SHAREWARE LICENSE You are hereby licensed to: use the shareware version of the software with the limitation to only create and manage up to 10 connections in one Royal TS file document (�.rts file�); make as many copies of the unregistered shareware version of this software as you wish; give exact copies of the original unregistered shareware version to anyone; and distribute the unregistered shareware version of the software in its unmodified form via electronic means. There is no charge for any of the above. " > Dogs have masters. Cats have staff. That makes me 'staff' -- zakAT(a)pooh.the.cat - Sergeant Tech-Com, DN38416. Assigned to protect you. You've been targeted for denigration!
