Right click menu + https

mattjenkins over 13 years ago

Hi All,

Has anyone managed to setup a 'Secure Web Browse' on the right click menu?

We have a lot of systems that are https (Cisco WLC's for instance) and its REALLY annoying to click web browse and Esc and edit the web address to https://

I have added:
<MenuOption Visible="TRUE" Title="Secure Web Browse" BeginGroup="FALSE" HasSubMenu="FALSE" ExecString="C:\Program Files\Internet Explore\iexplore.exe https://${IP}" Icon="WEBBROWSE" Extra="" Parent="" Required="4"/>

to the swtoolset.menuoptions file on my PC but it doesnt show up....

I have ssh via putty setup and working so basically copied the line and amended the exec string.

Any ideas anyone??

OK I just added it and it works.
Typo in your defination should read: ExecString="C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe https://${IP}"

For those modifying the SwToolset.MenuOptions file to customize your Orion/Toolset integration menu the file you will want to edit now is at:

<LocalApplicationData>\SolarWinds\ToolsetIntegrationTray\Menu.xml
Where <LocalApplicationData> = <ProfileFolder>\Local Settings\ Application Data
This is for the current method of Orion/Toolset integration which started with Toolset 10.6.
--HTH

Hi Steve-
Thanks for this. What if this folder ..\ToolsetIntegrationTray and the menu.xml file is missing completly from your app profile?
So:
Right Click menu works fine on the remote SolarWinds Server.
Right Click menu opens, but nothing works on my local laptop

I appreciate comments.
Thanks,
Mike B.
