In xrdp.ini
, the base install of xrdp on my raspberry pi*, there I have the following below. I changed crypt_level
to high
.
[globals]
bitmap_cache=yes
bitmap_compression=yes
port=3389
crypt_level=high
channel_code=1
Now, on my own network (with no port forwarded configured on the router) when I access everything over 192.168.1.xx
I image it's default settings are sufficient.
However, if one were to install this to a public facing workstation, would (a) this default setting be too low and (b) is there a different, more hardened configuration to consider? If I gave the pi a public facing IP should I consider a different method (VNC over SSH)? Could I pipe RDP over SSH?
The pi is running the following if that makes any difference.
