Re: Opening RDi and not automatically trying to connect to the last system accessed

I tried that in the past but found it a pain to have to re-open all the sources I was working with.

I found the only solution on Windows was to manually close the connection - while leaving the members open. Windows drove me nuts with this issue.

My (better) solution has been to switch to the native Mac version which still complains about the connection - but unlike Windows will happily do as I ask and disconnect and then allow me to reconnect. With Windows that loop can go forever.

I should not that for sure there are some bugs in RDi in this area that one day I'll find the time to document and see if IBM can't find them. It seems to be that it is using multiple connections for different purposes and they don't "talk" to each other. As a result one part of the product can seem to be connected but another is convinced the connection has been dropped. This seems to confuse the Windows TCPIP stack a lot more that it does the Mac one.

Subject: [WDSCI-L] Opening RDi and not automatically trying to connect to the last system accessed

Hi All,

I am using Rdi 9.5.1.2

I have quite a few different system connections configured.

When I launch Rdi it tries to automatically connect to the last system
accessed and if there is no connection to that system then we get into a
loop where I click cancel and then it tries again and this goes on and on.

So I establish a vpn connection to satisfy the requested connection just
so I can cancel it and then connect to the system I want.

Is there a way to turn this off ?

Thanks


Don Brown
