Re: Session Reconnect
Soo Kuan, my original need was to detect reconnect and then run a script that
looks at “clientname” variable and re run parts of the logon script.
Specifically we need to provide proper printers depending on location of the
thin clients. Also delete printers if they reconnect from non thin client
locations.
I looked at WTSWaitSYstemEvent API but I am not a good VB coder and freeware
apps for Windows 2003 don’t really work well in Windows 2008.
After talking to Microsoft I did find out that I can create a task and use
“on connection to user session” as trigger to run a script. This is exactly
what I was looking for.
Now comes the hard part. The “clientname” environment variable is not
updated when a user reconnects a session. So I would still have CLIENTNAME
=thin1, when I reconnect a session from “thin2”. Would anyone know how I can
pull updated CLIENTNAME?
