Microsoft releases Remote Desktop Connection 6.0 (Download Squad)

Jan 8th 2007 7:50PM Yes, you can enter the server or domain name where the desired account database is, but the point is the the other versions of RDP didn't require you to tab back, change the part with the name, and then try to connect. If I am in a domain using the Windows XP version of RDP, I just use my ID and password, and the RDP tool remembers those. If I need to change it, then I can. Also, I can pre-enter the name, password and domain on the XP and older version, but NOT on this new one. It requires much more typing and correction, just to reconnect to the same server. It's ridiculous.

I removed the new one - Thanks, Sahir - which doesn't even mention that it's the RDP tool, and re-installed the old XP version, which works great for everything.

This is the previous version that I use on all my servers and desktops:
Windows XP Remote Desktop Connection software
[XPSP2 5.1.2600.2180]
