I'm investigating the deployment of a RDS-based solution and I wondered if an RDS session can be assigned a unique hostname based on the PC the session originated from.

I need this to allow the following scenario to work:

  • A Client application is started in RDS
  • This application opens a web-application
  • This web-application takes the IP-address of the request to resolve the Hostname of the computer where the request originated.
  • That hostname is then used to load computer-specific settings for the web-application.

In the end, we ripped all pc-specific settings from the web-app. Since there was no reliable way to determine the host (even in non-rds environments), it didn't make sense anymore.

I have logging enabled on the Remote Desktop Gateway server and put the log files in a share. You can choose from different log formats and browse them for user's IP or the user-hostname.
