Is there a more lightweight solution? Like, some ssh frontend? I’d like to help my mom cleaning up her Windows computer because she’s not very tech savvy. I can of course just screen share on some messaging app but it’d save so much time if I could have control.
I’m not going to be reacting to answers advising me to install a Windows esque distro on her computer.
@akunohana I last used it about twenty years ago. I notice it is no longer supported.
Still works once you can get it to connect, though. The catch is that connecting can take several tries. Probably better to use remmina unless there’s a bug in freerdp that’s causing problems for your use case (rdesktop is, I believe, the only Linux rdp client that uses its own protocol implementation instead of the freerdp library).
Yeah, just saw it. It’s the thought that counts though! Thanks! 🙂
