• In the Screen Size drop-down list, select the default terminal services screen size to be used when users execute this bookmark. Because different computers support different screen sizes, when you use a remote desktop application, you should select the size of the screen on the computer from which you are running a remote desktop session. Additionally, you might want to provide a path to where your application resides on your remote computer by typing the path in the Application Path field.
• In the Colors drop-down list, select the default color depth for the terminal service screen when users execute this bookmark.
• Optionally enter the local path for this application in the Application and Path (optional) field.
• In the Start in the following folder field, optionally enter the local folder in which to execute application commands.
• Select Login as console/admin session to allow login as console or admin. Login as admin replaces login as console in RDC 6.1 and newer.

You can hover your mouse pointer over the Help icon next to certain options to display tooltips that indicate requirements.
To see local printers show up on your remote machine (Start > Settings > Control Panel > Printers and Faxes), select Redirect Ports as well as Redirect Printers.

• For RDP - ActiveX on Windows clients, optionally select Enable plugin DLLs and enter the name(s) of client DLLs that need to be accessed by the remote desktop or terminal service. Multiple entries are separated by a comma with no spaces. Note that the RDP Java client on Windows is a native RDP client that supports Plugin DLLs by default. The Enable plugin DLLs option is not available for RDP - Java. See Enabling Plugin DLLs .
• Optionally select Automatically log in and select Use SSL VPN account credentials to forward credentials from the current SSL VPN session for login to the RDP server.
