# AdvancedConnectPlugin
AdvancedConnect is a plugin for [KeePass](http://keepass.info) password manager which gives you the possibility to provide different applications for direct connections.

## Requirements

- Microsoft Windows with .NET/[Mono](http://www.mono-project.com/download/) 2.0 or newer.
- Unix/Linux with [Mono](http://www.mono-project.com/download/) 2.0 or newer.
- [KeePass](http://keepass.info) version 2.28 or newer.

## Installation

- Download the [latest](https://github.com/aalbng/AdvancedConnectPlugin/releases/latest) release.
- Copy the AdvancedConnectPlugin.plgx in your KeePass directory and restart the application.

## Usage

- The plugin adds a new menu item named **AdvancedConnect** under **Tools** menu.
- Use the **Main** tab in the **Options** dialog to configure the custom fields from which the plugin gets the connection method and the connection options field (overrides default options).


On windows operation system the native remote desktop client have no option to provide the username and password via command-line. The built-in rdp support is a little workaround wich provides this functionality. You have to configure the keepass connection field (containing ip or hostname), a connection method (e.g. rdp) and you can set additional parameters (e.g. /w:1440 /h:900).

- Use the **Applications** tab in the **Options** dialog to configure your connection applications.

The **Path** and **Commandline Options** column is also supporting keepass placeholders and OS environment variables.
- To use a **portable configuration** you have to create an emtpy file named **AdvancedConnect.xml** next to **KeePass.exe**.

(If a portable\admin configuration file is available, the default configuration *%appdata%\Keepass\AdvancedConnect.xml* will be ignored)

## Example
- Configure main options


- Add your applications


- Set custom fields in keepass entries


- Start your applications directly from keepass

## Security

Please take note that launching applications via command-line can expose your password arguments in the taskmanager.
