Connecting to the Microsoft Terminal Server (RDP)

In order to redirect USB devices to remote desktop session, FreeRDP must be used in conjunction with FabulaTech FT Plugins extension for remote desktop software. FT Plugins extension must be installed alongside with FabulaTech USB for Remote Desktop (Linux version) as shown on the installation page.

Before usage, run once:

$ sudo /opt/ftplugins/bin/ftrdpbr-setup.sh -i

There are 2 ways of usage. First, just launch:

$ /opt/ftplugins/bin/ftlaunch

Second, use FreeRDP directly. It depends on the installed FreeRDP version:

FreeRDP v2.0 and above:

$ xfreerdp /vc:ftrdpbr /u:USER /p:PASSWORD /v:SERVER

FreeRDP v1.1:

$ xfreerdp /dvc:ftrdpbr /u:USER /p:PASSWORD /v:SERVER

FreeRDP v1.0:

$ xfreerdp --plugin ftrdpbr -u USER -p PASSWORD SERVER

where:

USER

Your remote desktop account username.

PASSWORD

Your remote desktop account password.

SERVER

Remote desktop server IP or network addresss.
