[07:20] MSTSC Three Finger Salute
Date: 6/23/05 at 3:20PM
I've been using the Microsoft Terminal Services Client (mstsc.exe) a lot recently and today the root explorer.exe hung on the server leaving me unable to do anything. I needed to press Control Alt Delete to get to the Task Manager but I couldn't because the local machine obviously gets precedence on that little combo. A little digging on the MS Support site revealed:
To send Ctrl Alt Del via a Terminal Services connection you need to press Ctrl Alt End.
The only other really interesting combo I found is Control Alt Break which toggles between Windowed and Full Screen modes.
To get the word from the horses mouth or decide for yourself what is really interesting, check out the MS article How To Connect Clients to Terminal Services By Using a Terminal Services Client in Windows 2000 - in particlar the Shortcut Keys section.
