Connecting from Linux computers you need to use XFreeRDP or similar third party program. Microsoft has also published an RDC app for Android, iOS and MacOSX allowing these devices to connect to a Windows PC using RDP. I will update this information if Microsoft makes changes in it in Windows 8 and 8.1 only Pro and Enterprise editions can be hosts, the basic version version of 8 or 8.1 can only be used as client to connect to remote hosts, in Windows 7 Professional, Ultimate and Enterprise editions could be remote hosts and Starter, Home Basic and Home Premium only remote clients. The computer we are connecting to hosts the remote connection session and is therefore called a Remote Host, the Remote Client being the computer from which we are connecting to the remote host.Īt the moment, Windows 10 still being a Technical Preview, all available editions can act as remote hosts.
The connection uses Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) to let two computers, a remote host and a remote client talk to each other. RDC presents the desktop interface (or application GUI) of the remote system as if it were accessed locally.Ī remote connection from a Windows PC to another Windows PC is easy and can be done without installing any additional software. Remote Desktop Connection, short RDC (also called Remote Desktop) is the client application for Windows Remote Desktop Services using RDP to allow a user to remotely log into a networked computer running the terminal services server. RDP or Remote Desktop Protocol is the Windows protocol taking care of remote desktop connections.
