asked on

dual monitor over RDP VM's

Hello All,

Trying to figure out how to do this... I have alot of VM desktops that run on my esxi 6.5 box that I use for outside sales/etc... I need them to be able to span the VM over both of thier monitors when remoting in... I have made sure that the client has the RDP option to enable use of all monitors but when they connect to their VM it just locks to 1 screen... Any ideas?

Thanks

Also just an fyi... I made sure in the esxi settings on the VM I put the number of displays to 2. Didnt seem to help at all.

Yes I already did most of that.... The host VM esxi has settings set to 2 monitors... On the host i edited the local GPO to allow 2 monitors... And on the client i enabled the use all monitor option... still when i connect to them VM it locks to 1 screen... And i cannot edit anything in the resolution/etc over rdp as its greyed out.
