It appears since late of last week there is no longer the ability to RDP onto Windows 7 using the linux client Remmina. Nothing (configuration) has changed on the linux client nor the Windows 7 host with the exception of security updates being installed.
When attempting to log in, i am able to get as far as being presented a prompted with the challenge to accept the certificate however as soon as i click to accept the session closes immediately.
I am able to ping, telnet, etc the host device. No firewall rules have been changed. I have also followed all suggestions below;
- https://askubuntu.com/questions/157723/cannot-rdp-to-windows-7-with-remmina-on-12-04
- https://askubuntu.com/questions/154121/why-wont-remmina-connect-to-windows-7-remote-desktop
Neither works.
I had to follow the suggestion at to get it to work however it is less than ideal
1Remmina uses xfreerdp to do its underlying connection, you can use it from the command line
xfreerdp /v:<ip.of.rdp.server> /u:username /p:
this will then connect to your server and hopefully give you some debug info if it fails. – squareborg – 2015-07-07T18:42:57.463
