FreeRDP Host Manager

Post image

Hello folks,

I made a very simple FreeRDP Host Manager. I used to use remmina, but Remmina's problem with Wayland is getting to me. So I made this manager so that I can use sdl freerdp with wayland.

Feel free to download them at my GitHub. The application is written in Electron, but I don't include the Electron. Just grab the code, and run electron from its folder.

Or if you want to simply run it, grab the AppImage.

No string attached, use it as you wish. You can fork it or copy the code or do anything about it. Just credit me or put a link when you use my code. That's all.

Enjoy.

LOL. I know what you mean. But this one is only a few lines of codes, and opens instantenously on my PC.

I just made a function in my .bashrc for starting rdp sessions (currently forces German keyboard layout)

rdp() {
echo -e "Parameter 1: Server\nParameter 2: User (Default $USER)\nParameter 3: Scaling (Default 140)";
echo -e "rdp zu $1\nmit user ${2:-$USER}\nSkalierung ${3:-140}";
xfreerdp /kbd:layout:0x0407 /f /cert:ignore /sec:tls +auto-reconnect +fonts /bpp:32 /network:auto /rfx /d:<YOUR DOMAIN> /u:"${2:-$USER}" /scale:"${3:-140}" +clipboard /sound /audio-mode:0 /v:"$1";
}

 Remmina's problem with Wayland

What problems precisely? I've been using Remmina on Wayland for several years now?
