xrdp - Remote Desktop Server for Linux
|
|
|
|
Xrdp provides a fully functional Linux terminal server, capable of accepting
|
|
connections from rdesktop and Microsoft's own terminal server/remote desktop
|
|
clients. Xrdp uses Xvnc or X11rdp (which are installed separately) to manage
|
|
the X session. This means a RDP client can connect to a VNC server on the
|
|
xrdp server machine in addition to the RDP server. Xrdp can also act as a
|
|
bridging server, allowing RDP clients to connect to other RDP or VNC servers
|
|
through the xrdp server.
|
|
|
|
Xvnc can be installed by installing tightvnc (available on SlackBuilds.org).
|
|
X11rdp can be compiled and installed by following the directions in the
|
|
thread at http://tinyurl.com/2ufoz2 (link to LinuxQuestions.org).
|
|
|
|
By default, this script will make xrdp without PAM support since PAM is not
|
|
installed in Slackware by default. The script supports building with PAM,
|
|
but it is completely untested by us. If you want to enable PAM, run the
|
|
script as follows:
|
|
USE_PAM=YES ./xrdp.SlackBuild
|
|
|
|
After installing xrdp there are some configuration files in /etc/xrdp that
|
|
can be modified. sesman.ini has some useful options to take note of such as
|
|
the ability to allow xrdp use by only a certain group and to specify the log
|
|
location (the default log location has been changed to /var/log/sesman.log).
|
|
xrdp.ini should be modified so that you have the options you want at the
|
|
server login screen. For instance, if you want xrdp's default options to be
|
|
like those of a Windows RDP server then change xrdp.ini so that the default
|
|
set of options under [xrdp1] corresponds to sesman-X11rdp. Similarly, you
|
|
might want to change the options (eg. port number) for VNC (listed as
|
|
"console" by default). The man page for xrdp.ini has more details on the
|
|
file.
|
|
|
|
/etc/xrdp/xrdp-xinitrc by default loads KDE during a X11rdp session. Change
|
|
this as desired to load a different DE/WM. A similar script can be executed
|
|
on a per-user basis by creating an executable script at ~/.xrdp-xinitrc. A
|
|
utility program, xrdp-xwmconfig, is included to allow you to use your xinit
|
|
scripts during X11rdp sessions. It works just like xwmconfig, so run it as
|
|
root to set the global default, or run it as a normal user to set only the
|
|
default for that user. See the sesman.ini man page for details about
|
|
defining different names or locations for the X11rdp startup scripts.
