Remmina, alternative Linux à Windows Remote Assistance
Mis à jour le
Notre avis
Remmina is a solid replacement for Windows Remote Assistance if you're helping someone on Linux who needs to connect *to* Windows or other systems, not receive support from others easily. It supports RDP and VNC securely, handles encryption, and works across platforms. However, it lacks a built-in invitation system or one-click consent flow for the person being assisted. It's best for technically comfortable users who initiate connections, not for guiding non-technical users through quick remote help sessions.

Ce qui fonctionne pareil
- Supports encrypted remote desktop access via RDP and VNC
- Requires explicit user access on the remote machine before control
- Allows full remote control, not just viewing
- Works across different operating systems (Linux, Windows, macOS)
- Includes clipboard sharing and file transfer capabilities
Ce qui change
- No built-in invitation or helper-request system like Windows Remote Assistance
- No automated NAT traversal or firewall-friendly quick connect for non-technical users
- Setup requires manual entry of IP, port, and credentials
- Does not support the .msrcincident file format used by Windows Remote Assistance
- Targeted at users connecting *out*, not receiving inbound support easily
Ouvrir vos fichiers Windows Remote Assistance
Remmina cannot open .msrcincident files used by Windows Remote Assistance to initiate sessions. These files contain connection metadata and encryption keys for the helper, but Remmina has no support for importing or processing them. There is no known workaround to use these files directly. Users must extract connection details manually (like IP and port) if attempting to connect via RDP or VNC, assuming the remote system is already configured to accept such connections.

Can someone on Windows use Remmina to help me remotely?
No, Remmina is a client for Linux users to connect *to* other machines. It doesn't let Windows users initiate or send remote help sessions to a Linux desktop like Windows Remote Assistance does.
Does Remmina support unattended remote support?
Yes, if you set up a service like xrdp or a VNC server on the Linux machine and save credentials in Remmina, but this requires manual configuration and isn't as simple as the Windows equivalent.
Is the connection secure with Remmina?
Yes, RDP and VNC connections can be encrypted, and Remmina supports SSH tunneling for added security, especially when connecting over untrusted networks.
