remote-desktop

I have some severs I manage VIA Remote Desktop. They do not listen on port 3389. I can connect with out issue doing IP:PORT.

I now manage so many I'm trying to use the Remote Desktop snap-in for the management console. But it will not let you enter a colon in the host name.

Is there another way to specify the port?

Here is link to the snap-in.

After that MMC can behave as though… >>> More
