Hello.

I have simple scenario. For my several computers I need remote access to KDE 5.9. I tried TeamViewer, Nomachine, VNC. But the teamviewer, nomachine is not connect by plasma. VNC is too slow and not possible to used for higher resolutions or two monitors which are standard for actual all jobs.
There is NOTHING for Plasma for good remote accessing.

Several stations are windows server where the RDP is perfectly designed. It is fast, very good transmission of screen, sharing of folders, copy/paste feature.

The remote accessing is top important feature for many actual stations which are using around world. It has to be integrated to the core and it has to be best, not just VNC slow terrible "screenshoting".

Do you have plan for it? Or is there exist some project for it?
Thanks for answer.

You might check out [url="www.xrdp.org]xrdp[/url].

Thanks for idea. Can you be more specific? Do you use this project yet? Can you provide some guide or configuration which is useful for Plasma 9.5?
This topic can help many people, and this short closing this issue is not good idea...
Thanks.

I have been using xrdp for years at work where most machines are Windows, but there are plenty of us which run Linux (Ubuntu 14.04). Windows Remote Desktop is the primary means of remoting in to our development machines e.g. during meetings or demos, so we use xrdp to enable remoting into our Linux machines from Windows.
Doing a quick search I found this blog post: http://c-nergy.be/blog/?p=6717 which has instructions for how to set up Xrdp with Plasma (4) on Ubuntu 14.10, though you should be able to adapt them to your distro+version.

XRDP doesn't work with Plasma 9.5. I'm trying several settings but all my tries fail with errors and not possibility to connect.
So, the problem is still open and I haven't good solution for remote access.

What errors/problems are you running into? Perhaps we might be able to help you work through them to get xrdp working with Plasma 5.9?

Doing some more googling, I see there's also [url]freerdp.org[/url] which is primarily used as a client and backend for various remote desktop tools like remmina and krdc, but it appears that it can also be used as an RDP server. Unfortunately it isn't readily apparent from their site how to set that up, but perhaps some more googling will turn up some more information. (I did manage to dig up https://github.com/FreeRDP/FreeRDP/issues/1060#issuecomment-14607290 which has some instructions).

ETA:
Also, what distro+versions are you using?
Have you tried using xrdp (and other remote desktop solutions) with other desktop environments?

Distro: KDE neon user edition.
It was already tested. Remmina and KRDC (not for client) but for server if found VNC server support only - and it will crashed after start.

I found solution yesterday. New version 5.2 of Nomachine works very great and fast. NX port 4000 can be transmit by remote port forwarding, all is fast, transmission both screens and support 4K too.
So, I will use this solution.

Thanks for help!

Hi,

I'm looking for a Linux replacement of mRemote (https://mremoteng.org/).

This is a Multi protocol connection manager (SSH, RDP, VNC, TELNET etc).

There are a couple linux alternatives available, and probably already installed with your desktop of choice. Just search for a Remote Desktop app in the menu and it should pop up.
In particular, there's a KDE remote desktop app called KRDC, which supports RDP and VNC. And for Gnome, there's [http://www.remmina.org/wp/]Remmina[/url] which supports RDP, VNC, NX, XDMCP, SSH and Telepathy (and you can certainly use either one from either desktop as you prefer).
