Task:
To create a VBSCript shortcut on user desktop to connect to a terminal server by using the workstation name as the user name. For example the computer name is 12345 then it will conntec to the terminal server using the username 12345 and automatically log on to the terminal server ( user doesn't have password).

Please advise. Thanks!

there is a problem with that, its scriptable but you cant login to TS with a blank password.

well i had a couple of ideas for the script,

one is to use the web interface for TS and just call the url with vbs

or see if mstsc will accept command line switches, if not create a default .rdp file for the user's login and use vbs to start mstsc

im going away for a four day weekend but i did a little research on my ideas. im going to assume you dont have tsweb setup on your TS server for now.

mstsc accepts command line switches, go to a cmd window and type mstsc /? for the options. i would create a rdp file with your mstsc then put it in a shared folder somewhere on the network. then use vbs to run mstsc with that rdp file from the network.

alternatively, you can use tsweb on your TS server and use this url to connect to it,
http://servername/tsweb/Default.htm?AutoConnect=1 this will pull up a full screen connection to the same server. i havent tried using vbs to access this but i assume it would work.
