and here's the plot twist, bestie β€” unlike Windows NT/2000/2003 server, xrdp will not display a Windows desktop but an X window desktop to the user. no cap. the whole vibe is different.

it can also be used as a VNC->RDP bridge. versatile icon behavior only πŸ”₯


πŸ‘‘ OPTIONS πŸ‘‘

  • -k, --kill β€” kill the running xrdp daemon πŸ’€ bye bestie, it's over
