Windows7 using Remote Desktop (XRDP+VNC) to connect Ubuntu methods

Ubuntu has a remote desktop with a VPN mode, which is a very depressing way for remote Desktop to be slow and often unable to connect. The following is a different xrdp mode, using Win7 's own system Tools Remote Desktop, even the VNC viewer is saved. And fast, normal access.

Specific methods:

The operation under Ubuntu

1, first you have to have Ubuntu10.10, in fact, 10.04 can also use this method, as for the other version, I did not test, but it should be almost said ...

2, Win7 remote connection on Ubuntu, the protocol used is RDP, so we have to install this thing. Open Terminal:

The code is as follows	Copy Code
sudo apt-get install XRDP

3, after loading the XRDP, again:

The code is as follows	Copy Code
sudo apt-get install vnc4server tightvncserver

4, all installed on the "preferences-Remote Desktop" there, set up, allow Remote Desktop, allow control, and so on.

Actions under Windows:

After all of the above work is done, open "Remote Desktop Connection", in the "Computer" that column, fill in the IP address of the Ubuntu you want to connect to. Under Ubuntu, you can get an overview of the local network connections, including IP addresses, through "ifconfig".

Fill in the correct IP address, press ENTER, there will be a landing box, we choose "Sessman-xvnc" this, and then enter your Ubuntu username and password, ok!

Postscript:

One problem with using this approach to Ubuntu is that keyboard shortcuts can be a little confusing. At this point, disconnect Remote Desktop, on the Ubuntu entity machine, open the Management keyboard shortcut, will have the "Windows" key, Ubunntu display is "MOD5" key (as if it is similar, remember not clear) the shortcut key combination Delete.
