KeePass / Discussion / Open Discussion: New Plugin

Piotr - 2009-09-01

I have writen a plugin that is a workaround for sending keys to Remote Desktop Connection from KeePass 2.x. For that it uses the same c++ function as KeePass 1.x.
Depending on the configuration it also allowes the use of Two Chanannel Auto Type Obfuscation to type to specified program.

It can be downloaded form: http://plugins.pj.int.pl/RDC/

Cheers,
Piotr J.

  This is in the new PLGX format. To use it you need a non-production version of KeePass, so this should only be used for testing.

    Got a more current development snapshot downloaded and now the plugin loads.
    
    Have a second issue, getting a "ClassicType.exe not found." message when I try to use it. Any advice?

  The minimum Keepass snapshot required is KeePass_090830c (found at https://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=7597088\).
  That snapshotit adds the post-build command that adds this (ClassicType.exe) file.
  It does all the "typing" in c++ and is taken form KeePass 1.x.
  
  Hope that helps.

    Had/Have downloaded that snapshot. Still getting the error message. Is the ClassicType.exe expected to be a separate file, as I do not see it in the extract?
    PS. I also checked the earlier snapshots I could find on the plgx topic (KeePass_090820c.zip, KeePass_090824b.zip and KeePass_090830c.zip) and do not see any file relating to ClassicType.exe. TIA.

  Get KeePass 090830c, clear the plugin cache using 'Tools' -> 'Plugins' -> button 'Clear', and restart KeePass.

  Now I know the problem! Your user application directory contains a space character, which makes the copy command work incorrectly. The plugin needs to be rebuilt using a slightly different post-build command that includes quotes.
  
  I've added this to the PLGX build commands documentation:
  http://keepass.info/help/v2_dev/plg_index.html
  
  Best regards

  The bat file that packes the plugin is:
  
  cd RDCAutoTypeAndTCATO
  rd /S /Q bin obj
  cd ..
  C:\Users\Piotr\Desktop\KEEPASS\Keepass.exe --plgx-create "C:\Users\Piotr\Documents\Visual Studio 2008\Projects\RDCAutoTypeAndTCATO\RDCAutoTypeAndTCATO" --plgx-prereq-kp:2.08 --plgx-prereq-net:2.0 --plgx-prereq-os:Windows --plgx-build-post:"cmd /c COPY {PLGX_TEMP_DIR}ClasicType.exe {PLGX_CACHE_DIR}ClasicType.exe"
  
  Have a loot at a folder simmilar to:
  C:\Users\Piotr\AppData\Roaming\KeePass\PluginCache\9ORLmFO7XE6Hejob_2.0.8.30294
  There you should have two file: ClasicType.exe and Z4pRQBs6.dll
  
  Is that correct?
  
  As for it's use I have:
  Process pType = new Process();
  pType.StartInfo.FileName = "ClasicType.exe";
  pType.StartInfo.Arguments = s;
  string dir = Path.GetDirectoryName(System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().Location.ToString());
  pType.StartInfo.WorkingDirectory = dir;

  Better packed:
  http://www.pj.int.pl/RDCAutoTypeAndTCATO.plgx
  
  The last line of the bat to pack the plugin is now:
  C:\Users\Piotr\Desktop\KEEPASS\Keepass.exe --plgx-create "C:\Users\Piotr\Documents\Visual Studio 2008\Projects\RDCAutoTypeAndTCATO\RDCAutoTypeAndTCATO" --plgx-prereq-kp:2.08 --plgx-prereq-net:2.0 --plgx-prereq-os:Windows --plgx-build-post:"cmd /c COPY """{PLGX_TEMP_DIR}ClasicType.exe""" """{PLGX_CACHE_DIR}ClasicType.exe""""
  
  Anything better?

    HURRAY !!!! Downloaded the updated plgx and IT WORKS !!. This is awesome to have RDC login support again, as I have been running a parallel copy of KeePass 1.16 to address this need... now I can look forward to this being streamlined in KeePass 2.09 >=. Thnx a ton.

  Also - since this auto type code is form KeePass 1.x some placemarkes like {SPACE} = " " (as far as I can remember) are interpreted as in 1.x.

  I have a small problem with the plugin: i have some passwords with special chars (in particular the simbol £) which is not typed in the remote desktop, i tried that with notepad and the password is typed correctly, if a open a notepad within remote desktop session and try to autotype the password the special char is missing... Try for example with abcd£$!, the £ simbol will miss... That's really weird. Is there a workaround? thanks in advance

  From "abcd£$!," I am geting "abcd?$!,".
  The string to typing is not passed as unicode. The function that changes unicode to regular ascii might change £ to ?.
  I will look into passing it as unicode.

  Maxa,
  
  The newest plugin version workes correctly with strings like: "£123£321£".
  As £ can't be type using the keyboard (apart form using Alt-some-no.) it can't be typed directly.
  The plugin now determines which characters it can't type and copies them to clipboard and pastes them into the destanation window - this might not work with connsoles (u will see ^v).
  
  Workes better?
  
  Cheers,
  Piotr J.

For some reason when I auto-type an email address into IE7 with iexplore.exe setup for this plugin, the @r in the address launches the Windows Run command from the Start Menu. Auto-type then types the rest of the email into the Run dialog and tries to launch it is a program.

That's because @ is the sendkeys command for "press the Windows key".

Didn't know that - Thanks Paul for the info.
The typing program will not accept it any more and it will go via clipboard and ^v (in the tomorow's morning verison).
Mayby any other keys to reject?

Piotr J.

The newer (0.53) version types "123@rabc" without problem. (@ goes via clipboard) - will not work for typying to consols.

Thank you for the very quick update! I tried out the new version today and discovered that it does auto-type correctly into Notepad. However, when I tried the same test with IE7 it didn't work. The typing paused when it got to the @ symbol, skipped the symbol and then continued to type the remainder of the address into the field. The good news is that it didn't launch the Windows Run command.

You got me there - I haven't tested that in IE only in notepad.
Now it's almost resolve - most of the time in IE @ is plased correctly (at least IE8). There are times that it end up being omited. Also javascripts might sometimes interfere. Until the next idea lets test this - downloadable under the same version no.)
Personaly I have no problem with IE so normaly I do the native KP 2.x auto-type.

Piotr J.
