In DirectRDP mode X2Go Client basically becomes a GUI frontend for ''rdesktop'' or ''xfreerdp'' (which of the two is configurable per session profile). If a session profile is configured for DirectRDP mode, X2Go Client turns into a normal RDP client GUI. + + This can be very handy on X2Go Thin Client Environment machines. For Linux-based businesses, in most cases it cannot be avoided having a few MS Windows machines on site. If your company's IT concept is server/client based, then the X2Go TCE comes into play. You can use X2Go CLient (in TCE mode) to manage your sessions on your company's X2Go Server and also provide session profiles for your (e.g.) accountants who need to work on the MS Windows machines. + + Session profiles with DirectRDP support can also be deployed via the X2Go Session Broker. So most features of the X2Go Session Broker can be combined with X2Go Client's DirectRDP feature. + + + + + + - TODO ==== Credits ==== X2Go Client's DirectRDP feature was sponsored by the [[http://rohloff.de|Rohloff AG]] back in 2012. -- This mail was generated by DokuWiki at https://wiki.x2go.org/
