@JosDuchIt

the most important tooltypes are:
USER=xxx
SERVER= winxp-pc ip
DEPTH=16
you can close to ( ) the others to avoid confusion.

if you can see in my last grab, there is an EL in the window which is the greek language
the reason why xp refuse to log me in.
pressing alt+shift change language to EN (english) and it's ok.

@JosDuchIt

as for the keyboard layout, i'm talking about the windows keyboard, not sam and os4.
when the screen of rdesktop with windows coming up, in the windows login, the keyboard changing the language to greek.
but if you don't have two languages in your keyboard, may this is not your problem.


btw: for png icons put the png icon module in Libs:


-edit-

if you don't getting this screen from rdesktop you may have problem with settings in windows side.

@JosDuchIt

it's a bit tricky here because i had a similar problem and was coming from the keyboard layout.
in windows i have english and greek keyboard, and when i try to logon with rdesktop the keyboard switching to the greek keymap. but the password is in english so the system does not accept it. then i switching manually the keyboard to english and it's ok.

@JosDuchIt

the setup of rdesktop is much easier than you think.
in rdesktop folder use the icon Living_room_PC. type the ip of the pc
in the tooltypes and the user name you use to this pc, and run the program.

take a look here:
rdesktop set

@ChrisH

i agree. otherwise soon we will hear something like this:

'' they claim for a high end motherboard but... but the X in the logo is too small''

@Nimrod

ok. first if you have more than one computer to connect to the ap-client
you need a network switch. second, give the router's ip (named gateway in winxp ethernet settings).
probably will be something like
192.168.0.1 or
192.168.1.1 or
192.168.2.1 or
192.168.1.254 or
10.0.0.1

@Daz

not always. if Nimrod was not in a hurry i would propose to him to get a TP-LINK TL-WA501G.
i use a lot of them in a wide network in my neighborhood as ap and client.

@Nimrod

Quote:

i hope it will work as a client too... give the model if you pleased.

i update to the latest version on pegasos and it runs fine. i will try it on sam tommorow.

@JosDuchIt

RDesktop in amiga side act only as a client. you can use it to logon on a win pc
and control it. not the opposite. if you need to control Sam from the pc better use amivnc.

you can find the domain name of the network in windows by right clicking
''my computer''/properties/Computer name''. in home networks usualy is the ''Workgroup'' name.

@Rigo

we know it very well, and this is a way to tell you that we appreciate this piece of software
and the work you have done so far on it, so don't be so negative...
just my 2 cents...

@HammerD

remote desktop

This software package can also be found on the Windows XP Professional and Windows XP Home Edition product CDs and can be installed on any supported Windows platform. To install from the CD, insert the disc into the target machine's CD-ROM drive, select Perform Additional Tasks, and then click Install Remote Desktop Connection.

@JosDuchIt

for windows xp:
go to ''my computer'' right click on properties and then choose the ''remote'' tab.
in ''remote desktop'' check the ''allow users to connect remotely to this computer''
it may need to setup remote user to ''select remote users'' too.
use of rdesktop

@samo79

it's not only this. i know a lot of os4 user which don't know about amiupdate
or they afraid to use it. it's mature enough to be part of the os
so everybody will know and use it.
and it has the ability to autoupdate it's self so there is no problem to be out of date etc.

@Raziel and Rigo

exactly this.

@328gts

looks like you have confuse Ringhio, with Rigo, author of AmiUpdate!

@328gts

it has nothing to do the one with the other.

do you need windows update after a service pack update?
of course you do. it's shame that amiupdate is not officially integrated in os4.

@davebraco

the problem is that netfs is very old and 68k. have you try other methods, ftp for example?
you can set ftpd in os4 tcp to act as a server, and run a client ftp on the other side.

@Nimrod

as for pci, be careful for the 3.3 volt cards sam accept.
having this in mind, netgear ma311 is safe to use with prism2 device.
