rdpgui's Issues

Error when Password contains a space

"Server Error" is displayed when a password is used that contains a space, connection to remote server fails. Specifically when using rdesktop. Have not tried with other rdp clients.

Line 141 in rdpgui.py

Enclose RDPDomain within double quotes.

DomainFlag = config.get("DEFAULT", "RDPDomainFlags") + config.get("DEFAULT", "RDPDomain")

Add domain as dropdown

Hello,

Could I ask that the domain field be made to be a dropdown whereby the user can select either Workstation or the Domain for RDP connections?

I use rdpgui a lot for some of my workstations and it works perfectly. Being able to either use a domain ID or local workstation ID would greatly assist with our use case.

Thank you.

Add .RDP files support

Hi. Newer FreeRDP(git-2014 and newer) releases support .rdp files for Win2012 and 2016 servers that have self-contained connection and load balancing features with RDS+connection brokers that point to multiple servers on a cluster.

Besides all these fancy names/concepts/buzzwords, using these files as a parameter should be enough to make the connection work withouth declaring servers . Example:

xfreerdp /home/tc/FILE.rdp /d:DOMAIN /u:user /p:pass /kbd:"Portuguese (Brazilian ABNT2)"

Would it be possible to implement something like a RDPConnectionFiles parameter to make this work?

[DEFAULT]
RDPBinary = xfreerdp
RDPDomain = Domain
RDPConnectionFiles = /home/path/to/RDPOffice1.rdp  /home/path/to/RDPOffice2.rdp  /home/path/to/RDPOffice3.rdp
RDPDomainFlags = /d:
RDPServerFlags = /v:
RDPUserFlags = /u:
RDPPasswordFlags = /p:
RDPDefaulfFlags = /cert-ignore /f
RDPExtraFlags = /sound:sys:pulse /rfx /fonts

This way we can:

• Deploy one image that has all clusters information
• User will not have to know server names cause the RDP files will handle the connection to brokers, and these will make the load balance work on the servers of that cluster/location/office.
