RDP app, login with another account

Hi,

Just wondering if this is possible with Horizon 7.4.

I would like to add RDP to the application pool but have it automatically login using another account, when the user goes to use the app, is there such a thing.

The reason being, is that the server that the RDP is connecting to can only be logged in with a local account, not a domain account.  Just trying to simplify things for the user.

Thanks.

you can do it in many ways , the simplest way is to create patch file that call the RDP and in the patch file use the command "runas" as below

runas /user:domainname\username mstsc.exe

and call the batch file in the RDSH

Hi,

Sorry for the slow reply.

So very strange, I was able to create a rdp file, added the username and password (in hash format) and everything works great on the RDS server or my workstation.  When I had it to the application pool, it then asks for a password.  Any ideas?  So close.
