Hi all

I'm hoping some kind soul or souls can help me.
I would like to RDP into Tinycore as well as use Tiny core to RDP into my other machines.
Remmina seems to have managed the job in the past (just never tried it in TCL until today, sadly it isn't working.
I install the app from the app installer (apps, browse mirror , locate remina , install it) but two cions appear on the desktop and nothing happens when clicking them.

Is there anything that works like XRDP in and on TCL ?

I would really appreciate any help and/or guidance.

Stay safe

Hi denman
Welcome to the forum.

Last time I dealt with RDP (about 10 years ago) I couldn't get
Remina to work either. I wound up using  freerdp  instead. It's now
called  freerdp2.

As I recall, it includes a help command that lists many options:
Code: [Select]
xfreerdp --help | lessThe  less  command will allow you too scroll the help results, Page Up,
Page Down, up arrow, down arrow.

Hi Rich :-)

Thanks so much for the warm welcome :-)

I did check out freeRDP (and freeRDP2) ... I notice it is/was cli basd and was rather hoping(wanting) for something gui driven/based much like micros@ft terminal services client.

I will check out more examples though to perhaps see how it could be manipulated and the like to suit.

Thank you so much for the suggestion as well as for the reply and answer too

I'd appreciate if any further replies , help and suggestions too , both from you and anyone :-)

Stay Safe
Den

**Just a quick edit by me
It seems a free gui does exist/does exist for xfreeRDP. Credits to development by Prof. Wyllian Bezerra da Silva at Federal University of Santa Catarina (UFSC).

I'm still hopeful that Remmina for TCL will be 'fixed' :-) , until then I'll experiement a little with the above

Hi denman
... It seems a free gui does exist/does exist for xfreeRDP. ...
That looks like it should work. Some of our extensions are named
differently and may have some programs factored out into other
extensions:
freerdp-x11 == freerdp2
x11-utils == Xorg-7.7-bin, xdotool, ... ?

Luckily it's a fairly simple script and can easily be modified if necessary.

I just said I couldn't get it to work, that doesn't mean it was broken.
