An open source remote desktop protocol (rdp) server
xrdp is an open source remote desktop protocol(rdp) server.
Based on the work of FreeRDP and rdesktop, xrdp uses the remote desktop protocol to present a GUI to the user.
The goal of this project is to provide a fully functional Linux terminal server, capable of accepting connections from rdesktop, freerdp, and Microsoft's own terminal server / remote desktop clients.
Unlike Windows NT/2000/2003/2008/2012 server, xrdp will not display a Windows desktop but an X window desktop to the user.
xrdp uses either Xvnc or X11rdp to manage the X session.
