Remote connection

Post#1 by **KaSp** » 28 Sep 2023, 06:30

Hello!
I need to set up a remote desktop connection from Linux to Windows. I've got the Remmina application, which I regularly use on Linux.
Could you please walk me through the steps to connect to a remote Windows 10 computer using Remmina?

Hi! From what I know, there isn't a native Windows version of the Remmina remote desktop client available at the moment. However, if you're using Windows 10 Pro or Enterprise, there's a workaround that can help. Essentially, you'll need to tweak some system permissions to enable remote desktop sharing and allow the connection through the Windows firewall. Here's a step-by-step guide: helpwire.app/blog/remmina-remote-desktop-client/
Afterwards, fire up Remmina on the Linux computer. Simply punch in the IP address of the Windows computer and hit Enter. That's all there is to it.

Hi KaSp.

I use DWService alot. Runs through a web browser and has some nice features. Not for video though.

There are quite a few more that pop up in a Duck search.
