Linux Remote Desktop XRDP configuration __linux

Accessing the remote Linux desktop using the RDP protocol

In general, if you need to log on to a remote Linux system, we will use ssh/telnet to do it, and if we need to log on to a remote Linux system desktop environment, we might use VNC.

VNC is the default RfB-based Remote Desktop program for most Linux distributions, but for ordinary users, VNC's user experience is not good, slow, and requires installation of clients.

Windows Remote Desktop based on the RDP protocol, under Linux, we can also find open source Rdpserver, this is XRDP.

Now, let me introduce the installation method of XRDP under installation CentOS.

1. First install VNC

Yum Install Tigervnc-server

Start the VNC service and set the boot up automatically

Chkconfig Vncserver on
