Remote Desktop Assistant is a wrapper for Microsoft Remote Desktop Connection and OpenSSH. It creates RDP configuration files and utilizes the Remote Desktop Client (mstsc.exe). It allows to configure more RDP file parameters than Remote Desktop Client. Also, the application utilizes the built-in OpenSSH client and allows to insert auto-password and start-up commands. Additionally, the program combines the features of a ping and port monitor, and a Wake-On-LAN magic packet sender, retrieving automatically MAC addresses of LAN computers. It manages multiple remote desktop connections. You can add, edit and delete remote computer entries. Remote Desktop Assistant checks remote RDP/SSH port status and sends ICMP pings to remote computers. If your remote computers are configured to receive Wake-On-LAN magic packets, this software can turn on them remotely. The Remote Desktop Assistant installer includes the additional utility Wake-On-LAN Listener, which can be copied and used on remote computers.
