needing xrdp in Kiosk

Post#1 by michael92956 » 27 Nov 2013, 17:57

I realize that this is going to sound a little odd, but I was wondering how to install xrdp in the kiosk version. I need to give the ability for my windows clients to connect without requiring them to install a VNC client. I am trying to leverage the remote desktop client already installed in Windows. Any ideas or suggestions on how I might accomplish this goal?

:wall:

Thanks!!

i have just found that xrdp creates virtual X11 session (like tightvnc/tigervnc) rather than connecting to the real X11 session. this setup wont be supported in official kiosk (as kiosk is set for one X11 session only) so i'm moving this thread to 'users modifications to the Kiosk ISO' category.
