Public bug reported: Binary package hint: tsclient
We are getting a lot of people in our office to start using Ubuntu - and Terminal Services is an important part of it. I have seen a lot of people expecting the following: 1. The Quick Connect dropdown has a list of saved profiles 2. When you select a particular profile from Quick Connect, the Logon Settings section gets populated with the profile settings. 3. When you press connect, terminal services connects according to the logon settings (which came from a saved profile) 4. With reference to Bug #160038 , the last N hosts connected to (but not saved *explicitly* as a named profile) should still be available in the Quick Connect dropdown, named as the IP address of the machine you used. The explicitly saved profiles and the auto-saved last-n-hosts can be separated by a separator. 5. Do NOT save passwords unless a checkbox ("Save Password?") is ticked. This is to prevent a sysadmin temporarily using a machine to connect and having the password saved. I have had a lot of people being surprised when selection of a profile (#2 above) causes a connection to launch. These people are used to the way putty handles profiles and it was very puzzling for them. It would be great if these usability issues are addressed! thanks. ** Affects: tsclient (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- usability issue in quick connect https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/387179 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
