jang430 Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 Hello all. I've tried using NoMachine, TurboVNC from Windows into my VM in Unraid. Unfortunately, NoMachine's performance isn't to my liking. As for TurboVNC, I don't have any audio. I read somewhere that xrdp and tightvnc is needed. I have both installed. Yet, I don't have access to my virtual machine via microsoft rdp. Can anyone point out how to do this? Thank you. Quote Link to comment
dukiethecorgi Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 Are you trying to RDP in the local network, or from the internet? Quote Link to comment
trurl Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 Are you running unRAID as a virtual machine under ESXi? It doesn't sound like it. It sounds more like you are talking about using unRAID as the virtual host. That would seem to be consistent with your other recent posts as well. So, if you are talking about unRAID as the host, you have posted this in the wrong subforum. Let me know and I will move it for you. Quote Link to comment
jang430 Posted June 3, 2017 Author Share Posted June 3, 2017 hi trurl, I got stuck in getting xrdp to work. I haven't gotten my Windows to RDP into LinuxMint 18.1 installed with xrdp already. I first followed this- http://c-nergy.be/blog/?p=10241 Soon after, this- http://c-nergy.be/blog/?p=10273 I assume xrdp is already installed and running. But when I use Microsoft RDP, and connect to Computer: 192.168.1.103- My Unraid IP address, it doesn't connect. Do I need to put in some port? If needed, please move me to right forum. I'm using Unraid as host. Quote Link to comment

It's much easier to use VNC or something like Teamviewer. I've never had much luck getting a RDP server going on Linux, and to be honest RDP client performance on Linux isn't as good as on Windows.

Mostly because it uses VNC as the engine, so it's one more layer of abstraction. Setting up xrdp is pretty much just adding a translator to the vnc remote, so it's going to be faster just to use VNC and be done with it. Quote Link to comment

jang430 Posted June 11, 2017 Author Share Posted June 11, 2017 Thanks guys for your reply. Reason I wanted to use RDP is because my motherboard doesn't have audio. With TurboVNC to access my VM gives me good performance, but without audio. Someone suggested to use Nomachine, but I don't find it very intuitive. I thought RDP in Linux will give me same performance as Windows. Thanks for the clarification then. Is there any way for us to access Linux VM in Unraid to get performance as good as streaming desktops via Moonlight? Audio included. Sent from my LG-D855 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment
