in thread Windows Remote Desktop In Perl

Thank You Corion for your precious reply. Its quite shocking to know there is no module in perl to connect to a remote computer directly as Remote Desktop does without any dependencies. Anyway, will try all the ways you suggested. Thank You once again.

    Why? It would be quite a useless thing to do. If someone wanted to do connections programmatically, it's because he wanted to issue commands or transfer files, neither of which Remote Desktop can do.

    Besides, it's quite easy to do anyway: system("start my.rdp");

    If you know of any other programming languages who have a facility to connect to a remote computer directly as Remote Desktop does without any dependencies, I'm interested of hearing about them. But it sounded to me as if Remote Desktop was not essential to your needs anyway, because you tried to avoid the transfer overhead that the RDC protocol incurs.
