Vista - terminal services client mstsc.exe rdp file span parameter

Does anyone know if there is a setting that can be added to an RDP connection
file to that is equivelant to the /span switch.

Thanks

David

David,

According to Ted Kummert, Corporate Vice President of Security, Access and
Solutions Division of Microsoft the /span feature for terminal services
seems to be available in Longhorn Server from RC1 and on.

However following that comment Joy Chik says they are adding it in Window
Vista, and seems to be present from build 5456 on.

Have you tried just adding /span to the MSTSC shortcut command line?

Thanks Bill but have the answer now, was looking for the setting to apply to
the RDP file that was the equivelent of adding the /span argument to the
command line of mstsc. You can achieve this with the line 'span:i:1'.

Cheers
