NOTE: If you do use this configure command, you should also have the Allow connections only from computers NLA setting on the remote Windows machine unchecked. configure command specified in the README file, so use the command below if you also experience odd configure problems. I ran into problems using the regular, plain. It's always preferable to use a package manager to install software and handle dependencies automatically.īut if you haven't installed rdesktop using a package manager, extract the tarball and change directory: # tar xvzf rdesktop-1.8.3.tar.gz # cd rdesktop-1.8.3 Stephen Glasskeys

You can acquire rdesktop from Github here, but before you download the tarball, be sure to try to use your Linux distro's package manager first.
