Remmina

Post by tlmiller »

So, some software I learned about yesterday when my Arch KRDC wouldn't work with the freerdp plugin. GTK based, but WOW!! RDP, VNC, SSH, SFTP connections, saves domain information, username, password. Can set up your keypairs for SSH connections that use private/public key pairing. Supports smart resizing. Can put your connections into groups to organize them. Can set connection quality for fast/slow networks. Just super impressed. I've removed KRDC from every one of my machines after finding this. Other than being GTK based instead of qt (which with plasma 5's ability to theme GTK now isn't as big a deal) this is superior to KRDC in EVERY WAY. Best remote connection manager I've ever used on linux!! Nearly as good as the commercial MobaXTerm on Windows.

Not sure if anyone else has ever heard of it, has any use for it (I have to remote to a ton of Windows and linux machines so it's nice to be able to manage all the passwords in a single interface), but if not, thought I'd post it.
