Hi Chris. You can edit the adminContextMenu attribute on the "display specifier" for the "computer class". Use Adsiedit.msc and navigate to CN=Computer-Display,CN=409,CN=DisplaySpecifiers,CN=Configuration,DC=... The attribute is locale dependent... a list of Locale Id's can be found here: http://www.microsoft.com/globaldev/reference/lcid-all.mspx (replace 409 with the appropriate one if you don't use an English Windows). Add a string to the list. If I remember correctly, the syntax is . Example: 10,Remote Desktop,path_to_executable The executable gets two commandline arguments when fired, the first is the distinguished name of the object which you have right clicked, the second is the name of the objectClass you've clicked ("computer" in this case). /stefan -----Ursprungligt meddelande----- Från: ActiveDir-owner@mail.activedir.org [mailto:ActiveDir-owner@mail.activedir.org] För Clemson, Chris (IHG) Skickat: den 24 september 2007 13:12 Till: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Ämne: [ActiveDir] Changing the context menu in AD Users and Computers MMC Hello everyone! Apologies if this has been asked before, but there's no search for the archives yet. I would like to be able to customise my context menu in Active Directory Users and Computers. For starters, I would like to be able to be able to right click on a computer icon and have an option to RDP to the machine. I have seen this: http://blogs.dirteam.com/blogs/jorge/default.aspx for adding an Effective PSO option on Server 2008, but am having trouble finding anything that would be suitable for windows 2003, and i can't find the command admon on my machine, the DC or the resource kit. thank you, Chris List info : http://www.activedir.org/List.aspx List FAQ : http://www.activedir.org/ListFAQ.aspx List archive: http://www.activedir.org/ma/default.aspx List info : http://www.activedir.org/List.aspx List FAQ : http://www.activedir.org/ListFAQ.aspx List archive: http://www.activedir.org/ma/default.aspx
