[Thinlinc-technical] tl-best-winserver on client side?!?

[Jens Langner]

Coming back to my own thread. Is there nobody who can provide more technical information on how the tl-best-winserver command actually works and how one can query this information via own socket calls to the tl-load-agent installed on a windows server? We really need that functionality to improve our clustered windows server environment.

best regards,
jens

When our NUCs are started we present the users a GUI to choose the server and if the server is a windows server it directly connects to this windows server via rdesktop rather than routing the user through ThinLinc. The reason for this is that we don't want to load the ThinLinc servers with users that only connect to windows servers.

And if not, is there a possibility to easily create such a command or query the information that the service (tl-wts-tools.exe) provides via network? In the end we would need a short documentation on how we can query the rating of each windows server over network.
