Description Samuel Mannehed cendio 2016-05-02 10:46:35 CEST 
If an administrator wants to restrict the amount of clipboard data that is possible to copy from the server and paste on the client, we will have to implement a way to accomplish this. In other words - a limit for clipboard transfers from the session to the client machine.
Comment 1 Samuel Mannehed cendio 2016-05-02 10:47:44 CEST 
A parameter for limiting the clipboard in the other direction is already available:

> −MaxCutText bytes
> The maximum size of a clipboard update that will be accepted from a client. Default is 262144.
