Description Brendan Hide 2008-07-25 15:23:02 UTC
Version:            (using KDE 4.0.98)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources
Compiler:          gcc on Archlinux, x86_64 default settings, no customisations
OS:                Linux

RDP usually requires Administrator or Admin access for system admins. With Active Directory, it may be their own name. At present, when logging into a server I haven't logged into before, I have to specify the username.

By default it would be very helpful if this was automatically filled in (and selected) with the username I'm most likely to be using. This 'default username' should be a configurable option.

Good idea. Will put it onto my TODO list.

SVN commit 858154 by uwolfer:

Greatly improve experience for LDAP (e.g. MS Active Directory) administrators.
Save passwords per LDAP login, not host. This way all hosts with the same login name use the same passwords (and changing the password affects all hosts with the same login name).
Also add possibilty to set a default login name for RDP.
