Simple rdesktop connection

rdesktop can be used for connecting to a Windows machine from Linux remotely. A simple connection can be made using:

To connect to remote machine with scaled display so that with resize display changes properly use:

rdesktop -g 100% <IP>


Full screen mode

To toggle between normal window and full-screen mode while using rdesktop use shortcut combination Ctrl+Alt+Enter. Option '-f' can be specified on command-line to start rdesktop directly in full-screen mode

By default rdesktop will assume slow connectivity, such as over Internet. However, if connection is made over LAN then the same can be indicated to rdesktop using option '-x l'. -x also takes few other parameters. See rdesktop help or man page for more details. There is also option of setting number of colors to increase/decrease bandwidth usage.
