Is there good tool that can do same thing as windows 'mstsc' and also has some features, like
save different session info, so don't need to remember difference IP/ID/pwd. Thanks.

I just found a really interesting program that allows me to use a USB drive as a windows login key. It is called Rohos Logon Key. IF I remobve my USB drive/key from the PC then I can have the PC lock or hibernate or any other option, I have been looking for such a solution for many years but never knew one existed until this and it works much better then I imagined.
I do have a couple minor issues though (im using Windows 7 pro). When I remove and then re-insert my USB key, windows prompts me with this dialog here...
Generally when I get this I just click on "Continue without scanning" however I am looking for a solution to just make it not even show this at all, is it possible to disable it from showing?

I also get this dialog as well when I insert USB drives/key...
Would it be possible to not show this as well or have it pick an option by default or anything really?
I've tried disabling "Save AutoRecover information" option, but to no avail. The window "Excel has recovered the following files" still pops up at the start.
Any other ideas?
UPD Auto-recover window is shown each start after I terminate Excel during my debug session.
All file entries Excel shows in the auto-recover window are dated by year 1601. I checked Excel auto-recover folder, and there is no any real file there.
I just submitted a form that included a text box, in which I had written a quite long text. In another textbox, I filled in a date in the wrong format - and instead of getting an error message, the web site just acted as if my form submission was valid, except nothing was saved.
Is there any way to see the history of what has been POST-ed (in the current session, at least), from where I can recover my lost text?
I have a PC running Opensuse 11.0 Linux. I currently login using ssh with putty. However this is a command line login. How to do a remote xserver login from windows to run a gnome or kde session. what software should I use?
I have the root password for the Linux PC and admin privileges on vista.
I was rebooting a remote server (Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard) over remote desktop and the session now shows the blue screen during the shutdown sequence, and the message "Please wait for the System Event Notification Service..."
It seems that everything is still running on the server (for instance, http://jeffhandley.com is still responding), but I need to get the machine to finish the reboot sequence.
How can I force the machine past this point? It's been stuck there for about 30 minutes.
I'm using VS2010, which has the cool feature of allowing you to drag panels out of the main IDE window. I like to drag some of the panels off to one of my other monitors.
Unfortunately, after each run/debug session, VS2010 seems to forget where I had the panels, and dumps them right in the middle of the IDE window, and I have to move it again. Does anyone know what to do about this?
I'm connecting to another computer via RDP. I would like to click on links inside my RDP session and have the links open in a browser on my client computer. It feels like I could install some application on both ends and have them communicate over TCP and proxy the URL opening.
Does something like this exist?
My Dell XT, after upgrade to windows 7 ultimate seems to never recover from a sleep i.e. opening the lid shows a flicker, and then all lights go off. When I press the power button long enough it reboots and says that Windows had a serious error, blah blah (but no BSOD). Hibernate doesnt cause any problem, and that is what I am doing as default.
Any idea how to debug more and fix it. Looked around (on web) for answer, tried related solutions (hotfixes for similar but not same problems) etc, but noting fixes this.
When using vim under screen, some keys are not working.
Namely, Pressing Alt-Left produces '3D'
and Alt-Right produces '3C'
Also, pressing Up/Down when scrolling list of files in Command-T plugin produces 'A' and 'B' respectively.
When I exit the screen and run vim just under ssh session, all works fine.
Are there any settings in screen itself or terminal server/client I can tweak to fix this issue?
I use a USB key which is encrypted with BitLocker to store various data. I keep that key with me all the time.
What happens all the time is that I send my home computer to hibernate without ejecting the USB key first. Then I unplug the key and take it with me to work. When I get home, I resume my Windows session and even though the key is not plugged in, the drive still appears as mounted on the system.
I can also unmount the non-existing device with mountvol, but that only removes the drive letter. Windows will still think the device is plugged in. When I plug the key in, nothing happens.
The device's class ID is listed in mountvol output, but the device is not listed in the Disk Management panel.
I've inherited a few sys admin tasks recently and am trying to wrap my head around using screen. The way the previous guy left it, there are four screen sessions running, some of which have two or three windows running within.
It doesn't appear that he was using any particular convention, so I ask you: Is it better to have each process in its own screen session, or better to group similar processes into a single screen? Or something different entirely?
Is it possible to move a process from one shell to another? Ex: I have launched a process in some shell, and I decide I'd like to move it to my GNU screen session. Is that possible?
Hi ,Has seen your mail just want to know how to launch application locally like instead of running on Server session it give a feel that it is running locally.
Hot to fix corruption of taskbar (multiple language panels) in Terminal Services in Win2003?
I know how to close many language panels and then check one.

I have an ASUS N53S that I mainly bought for its RAM capacity. (I run a lot of VMs.) But as a bonus, it came with a fancy ATI video card. So I decided to install GTA 4 and plug it into a big monitor and settle down for some casual mayhem. But after about 5 minutes, it goes into hibernation! What gives?
Since I was using an external monitor and didn't need the keyboard (using an XBox controller) I closed the lid on the laptop. Gaming is compute-intensive, so my GPU and CPU were both working hard and generating heat. Closing the lid interfered with cooling. Since I have the laptop configured to hibernate when I press the power button, the heat-triggered shutdown caused hibernation.
I have a GhostCast server running for deploying images. I would like to have each ghost cast session to write to a file ( can be multiple text files or append to one file already there ) statistics. I know this is possible based on the options GhostCast software provides for writing to a log file, but I would like this automated for every image being backed up and restored. I don't want to have my employees click write to a new file every time.
Is this possible?
I try advice like this that recommends adding the following to your .profile:
function tabname {
printf "\e]1;$1\a"
}
So you can type tabname brokenbox to name your tab. The problem is as soon as I also type ssh [email protected] and log in, it wipes the tab name. I want a tab name that's as persistent as the tab, not the level of session I happen to be in. Is this possible? I don't even know what layer that data lives in.
I've got a rare weekend with nothing to do, so I'm getting some housework done. I have iTunes playing for some background noise. Every 20 minutes or so, it just stops playing; if I move the mouse it starts again.
I'm on Windows 7 64-bit. My power settings have my monitor turning off at 10 minutes and hard drives at 20. Both sleep and hibernate are disabled.
"Aha!", you say, "Clearly when the hard drive is turned off iTunes is stopping!" Not so. I fiddled with the settings and changed them to make the hard drive sleep in 5 minutes, and iTunes kept playing for the 7 minutes I watched it. I'm currently trying to see what happens if I set the hard drive to never turn off, but I'd prefer to leave it at 20 minutes to save minor amounts of energy.
What other settings could be the culprit?
What are good alternatives to the Windows builtin remote desktop client?
I have tried Terminals and it is great but I've have run into numerous bugs with the latest release (currently 1.7e). Can anyone recommend an alternative similar to Terminals?
EDIT (in response to Adam Gibbins' answer):
One of the biggest things I'm looking for is session management and a tabbed environment similar to the Terminals interface.
I switch between three languages input methods frequently, sometimes in the same typing session. The default shortcut on a Macintosh seems to be to set keyboard shortcuts for previous/next language (I hit opt-cmd-space to go to previous language) and if you're more than bi-lingual you have to cycle until you find the one for you.
The ideal would be something like hitting fn-e for English, fn-j for Japanese and fn-g for German, but anything better than the current state would be a great improvement.

I have just tried to turn my PC on this morning and it won't stay powered up. It will come on as normal for about 5 seconds, not quite long enough for the monitor to wake up. Then it will power off. After about 2 seconds it will start again, it will continue like this until I pull out the plug.
Plugging it in again doesn't restart the cycle although pressing the power button does. I have tried to clear the cmos but beyond that I have no ideas. It was working perfectly when I put it in hibernate last night.
We're having some issues with Windows 7 Roaming profiles and I was reading here that the login process can be monitored using process monitor.
"There are a couple of ways to configure Process Monitor to record
logon operations: one is to use Sysinternals PsExec to launch it in
the session 0 so that it survives the logoff and subsequent logon and
another is to use the boot logging feature to capture activity from
early in the boot, including the logon."
How does one do either of these options using process monitor to find out what is happening during a user login?
I access a lot of files from a certain directory which is not ~ but say:
D:\Mijn documenten\My Dropbox.
What is the quickest way to 'find' a file in that directory within a new Emacs session? Using bookmarks?
