Connecting to Windows 2003 RDP in console mode

QuestionConnecting to Windows 2003 RDP in console mode

If I connect to my 2003 servers using the command mstsc.exe /admin from my laptop I connect to my serves in Console mode.

If Conect to my server in auto discovery mode, according to this article, I am connecting in console mode, but this is not the same screen I get when I connect from my laptop.

Why is this if I am connecting in console mode?

Thank you in advance.

To use console mode you need to connect using a Manual Connection. Discovered Connections do not support this feature.

1) Launch PocketCloud.
2) Tap the "+" icon.
3) Select "Manual Connection".
4) Select "RDP".
5) Fill in your connection details and switch "Console Mode" to ON.

Aloha, I came here looking for this info (and am not happy with the answer), so now my question is, will PocketCloud automatic connections ever support console mode, or is it just not possible?

There is no plan to support this for Auto Discovered connections. It is considered an advanced feature and therefore is only available with a Manual connection.

Sorry about that!
