Rdesktop - W8.1 - USB
« on: February 20, 2015, 03:19:19 AM »
Hi ,

I have some problem with the redirection of usb .

Here is my command :
  rdesktop -k fr-be -g 100% -a 32 -r disk:usb=/mnt/sdb xxx.xxx.xx.xxx

When I try this on my W2008 R2 server the redirection works fine but not on my W8.1  : /

Any idea ?

Thanks !


EDIT : I use Rdesktop 1.7.1 and TinyCore 6.0

Hi Sanghren
What happens if you try:
Code: [Select]
rdesktop -k fr-be -g 100% -a 32 -r sound -r disk:usb=/mnt/sdb xxx.xxx.xx.xxx
or

Code: [Select]
rdesktop -k fr-be -g 100% -a 32 -r sound:local -r disk:usb=/mnt/sdb xxx.xxx.xx.xxx

Hi Sanghren
There seems to be a small bug in some older versions of  rdesktop  where disks and I think printers won't get redirected unless
audio is also redirected. I run  xfreerdp  which doesn't exhibit that behavior.
