# Script Name : work_connect.py

# Author : Craig Richards

# Created : 11th May 2012

# Last Modified : 31st October 2012

# Version : 1.1

# Modifications : 1.1 - CR - Added some extra code, to check an argument is passed to the script first of all, then check it's a valid input

# Description : This simple script loads everything I need to connect to work etc

import subprocess # Load the Library Module

import sys # Load the Library Module

import os # Load the Library Module

import time # Load the Library Module

rdpfile = ("remote\\workpc.rdp") # Set the variable logfile, using the arguments passed to create the logfile

conffilename=os.path.join(dropbox, rdpfile) # Set the variable conffilename by joining confdir and conffile together

remote = (r"c:\windows\system32\mstsc.exe ") # Set the variable remote with the path to mstsc

text = '''You need to pass an argument

-c Followed by login password to connect

-d to disconnect''' # Text to display if there is no argument passed or it's an invalid option - 1.2

else:
