Easy xRDP Installer with Audio Redirection for Ubuntu Linux

I follow the video and successfully to create 2 sink files. However it is still not working in Debian 12 machine, any idea?

what configs you have on the VM. i have installed xrdp script, and i can connect to VM, but dont have audio. i have added an audio device with spice driver, but still no audio

thanks for making this video

Thank you so much for this informative video. I am trying to setup a system for a school and teacher wants to monitor the student's sessions and watch over their progress do you know how the teacher can do that and what setting would be needed? Thank you in advance.

Thanks for the video, with it I was able to set this up on Ubuntu!
I do get a "Authentication required" box that pops up after connecting saying "The login keyring did not get unlocked when you logged into your computer", is there a fix for this or must I supply my password every time? I am using Guacamole to connect to this Ubuntu desktop VM on ProxMox.

Thanks!!!

one thing that wasn't clear to me... is this creating another X session for the remote connection like VNC does? Or is this logging into the :0 X server display on the host? Meaning, if you went back to the proxmox display, would you see the remote user using the mouse and navigating around in the :0 display or is this a new X display being spawned?

Thanks!

Hi, I have been following you. You do a great work. I work for NextPCB. We would like to sponsor your projects. You can send a DM for more details.

So why would i want this instead of VNC or X11 Forwarding?
Just because RDP is native to Windows?

+1👍thank you, i've had xRDP working years ago, then it broke and never worked again. i just tried this method and it worked with one caveat...
it told me i had to be logged off of the console, which is an unfortunate disappointment. (2021 workarounds did not solve)

This scrpt doesn't work on Raspberry Pi OS. It can't detect OS.

I'll have to give this a try! Up until 22.04, I've always just installed xrdp and off it went (wasn't much concerned with audio working). But 22.04 just completely borked xrdp natively.

Thanks!

Have you tested sound in the other direction? Using a microphone, record your voice on the machine running the xrdp server.

Thank you, I plan to try this next time when I build a Linux computer. I have xrdp on several computers, on some of my computers I am unable to access the default/local desktop. My (somewhat ugly) workaround is to have 2 users, user1 to access the local desktop (sitting in front of the actual box), user2 for xrdp sessions. I did not need sound, so I do not know if sound on works or not.

Can you get console access? (VNC 5900)?

I just commented, and got deleted(?). The use case of xrdp I found is to use it with vm's+guacamole+reverse proxy+Cloudflare dns. So when I need to use my pc, I just go to my guacamole domain and use the pc from the browser. Good thing about xrdp is that adjust the display resolution to the browser size.

Thanks Don, good info... as always!!!
