How to Use Remote Desktop Connection in Ubuntu::
In the majority of cases, you need to install the Ubuntu remote desktop client manually on your Ubuntu Linux. In today’s blog post, Ubuntu 18.04.2 is installed on the VMware virtual machine. Some packages are already installed in our Ubuntu before going to configuring Ubuntu remote desktop: the text editor vim, net-tools and the SSH server (which allows you to connect via SSH to the Linux console remotely). These packages can be installed with the single command:

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install -y vim net-tools openssh-server
the question is: In order to configure Ubuntu RDP connections, you need to install the RDP client or/and the RDP server, depending on the connection direction.


well the question is - is it enough to run this command:

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install -y vim net-tools openssh-server

What remote access protocol is the remote server running?

If it's Windows, you only need to install a client package on your MX system and configure that to connect, but if the Windows remote server is behind a rdp gateway as is common with universities and the likes where multiple RDP servers are accessible only through the gateway, then you're out of luck.

Answer the first question and we can try to give you the right answer.

Same as you got told in the past, you load an rdp client. This is you ain't it? From 6 yrs ago, when you already had 2 yrs in. Remmina and vinagre ring a bell?
