Custom Sizing Your MMC RDP Console

31st January 2008 by 3 Comments

Following on from yesterdays post I was looking at some of the options and realised that you actually set the size of you RDP console.Since I use a Mac Book Pro with a wide screen the standard resolution are not very helpful, and I like to have fixed size windows, changing them to use the available width is a good thingô

Edit the the properties of the session that you have previously created

and select the tab and enter the screen size that you want to have. If I am running Windows in full screen mode then use 1440 x 900 which leaves space for other applications in OS X

Please leave a comment if this has been useful, I would appreciate the feedback.

    I use this on Windows inside of Parallels (preferred) or VMware. More comonly, since I spend a lot of time working on data centers, I often have a ‘jump box’ that connect to and then control a large number of network management servers.

    I don’t know of any way for MAC to support mmc.
