DNS resolution RDP

Hi! 

We are using Safeguard for Privileged Sessions 7.0.5.1  LTS. - Its a rather minor issue we're having, but it will improve quality of life for our users.

When in a RDP session. The Windows RDP client title bar does not show the DNS name of the server the user is connected to. It will only show the IP.

Any ideas how we can change this?

    We have an existing Enhancement # 418603 for SCALUS to launch using the asset name as the RDP window title instead of the IP but there is no ETA at this time and this would be subject to Product management approval.

    Workaround 1:
    Use a Microsoft utility to set a desktop background image with some identification to make it more easily identifiable in the Windows Taskbar preview screens and continue to use the built in MSTSC client:

    docs.microsoft.com/.../bginfo

    Workaround 2:
    Download the .RDP file which will show the asset name instead.

    Thanks!
