Fedora Client/Server Remote RDP Problem

Ask Fedora
1

Hi, I have two new Fedora installations. One (Server) on a HP ProDesk Mini and one on my laptop.

I activated the RDP Server (3389) and added two users on the server. Tiger VNC (closed connection) and Remmina show my the Login screen but close the window after pressing Enter (with User/Passwort).

KRDV gives me this information:

connecting to sesman on sesman.socket
sesman connect ok
Performing login for x
sending login info to session manager. please wait…
User does not exist, or could not be authenticated

Somebody knows why?

Do you have KDE installed at both ends?

3

Yes I have. I can also run Cockpit for the HP from the Laptop.

4

I also try it with Cinnamon/Gnome Desktop doesn´t work.

I have tried briefly to get RDP working between my system and failed so far. We both need the insight of someone who has this working.

Here’s the way to configure Remote Login for GNOME Remote Desktop:

Troubleshooting:

  • Using permissive SELinux mode is strongly recommended.
  • Manually restart the service and monitor both server and client logs.
  • Be ready to test different clients due to possible compatibility issues.
