How can I test an ActiveX connection outside the portal?

Sometimes you may need to verify that a terminal server application works when Stoneware webNetwork is not involved. This can be done using the full-fat client (mstsc.exe) or the activeX client. Because the activeX client is a bit harder to figure out, we have provided the following information and download. 

On a windows machine, you can launch the mstsc.exe for testing with the full-fat client. If you want to test the activeX connection, then download the following file : https://customer.lenovosoftware.com/support/downloads/examples/defaultrdp.zip 

Extract this .zip and launch the default.htm file using Internet Explorer. It may ask you if it is OK to load an activeX control, answer Yes. Fill in the server name and the parameters you wish to use and connect. 

If you want to simulate the launching of a published app , launch the launchnotepad.htm file and after it connects it will launch notepad.exe If you want to change the program that loads, edit launchnotepad.htm and change the line : 
MsRdpClient.SecuredSettings.StartProgram = "notepad.exe" 

To the application, you want to launch. 

Depending on your IE settings, activex may be blocked, if you drop this directory on any of your webservers and run it from there that may help or you can try connecting to
