rdesktop, alternative Linux à Microsoft Remote Desktop
Mis à jour le
Notre avis
rdesktop is a functional, lightweight replacement for Microsoft Remote Desktop, best suited for users who prefer command-line tools or need to script connections. It handles core RDP tasks like displaying the remote desktop, sharing the clipboard, and forwarding audio. However, it lacks a graphical interface, which makes managing multiple simultaneous sessions or handling complex authentication settings more cumbersome than the Windows client. If you rely heavily on GUI-based session management or advanced file transfer features, you might find rdesktop limiting. For basic remote access to Windows machines from Linux, it works well, but consider FreeRDP if you need a more modern, GUI-friendly experience.

Ce qui change
- Command-line interface only, no graphical user interface for managing sessions
- Limited support for modern RDP features compared to the native Microsoft client
- No built-in file transfer manager; relies on standard RDP drive mapping or separate tools
- Authentication setup is manual and less intuitive than the Windows client's credential storage
Ouvrir vos fichiers Microsoft Remote Desktop
rdesktop does not natively open .rdp connection files created by Microsoft Remote Desktop. You must manually translate the settings from the .rdp file into command-line arguments. While some community scripts exist to parse these files, there is no official support, so you will need to extract parameters like IP address, port, username, and encryption settings manually to build your rdesktop command.
Passer de Microsoft Remote Desktop à rdesktop, étape par étape
- Install rdesktop via your distribution's package manager
- Extract connection details (IP, port, username) from your existing .rdp file
- Construct the rdesktop command with appropriate flags for resolution and clipboard
- Test the connection to ensure authentication and display work correctly
