Remote connection issues

Problem: The remote connection feature does not support all of the remote tools; some configuration is required. For example, if a Remote Desktop link target is rdp://<myhost>, the remote desktop cannot be launched by clicking the rdp link. The browser displays a message saying that it does not know how to open this address, because the protocol (rdp) is not associated with a program.

Solution: Protocol handlers must be registered for any product that is not associated with an existing protocol handler. For Remote Desktop on Windows, use the following registry file to register the protocol RemoteDesktopRDPProtocolHandler.reg . For other platforms, see http://kb.mozillazine.org/Register_protocol.
