Examples

ironrdp-client

A full-fledged RDP client based on IronRDP crates suite, and implemented using non-blocking, asynchronous I/O.

cargo run --bin ironrdp-client -- <HOSTNAME> --username <USERNAME> --password <PASSWORD>

Example of utilizing IronRDP in a blocking, synchronous fashion.

This example showcases the use of IronRDP in a blocking manner. It demonstrates how to create a basic RDP client with just a few hundred lines of code by leveraging the IronRDP crates suite.

In this basic client implementation, the client establishes a connection with the destination server, decodes incoming graphics updates, and saves the resulting output as a BMP image file on the disk.

cargo run --example=screenshot -- --host <HOSTNAME> --username <USERNAME> --password <PASSWORD> --output out.bmp

How to enable RemoteFX on server

Run the following PowerShell commands, and reboot.

Set-ItemProperty -Path 'HKLM:\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows NT\Terminal Services' -Name 'ColorDepth' -Type DWORD -Value 5
Set-ItemProperty -Path 'HKLM:\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows NT\Terminal Services' -Name 'fEnableVirtualizedGraphics' -Type DWORD -Value 1

Alternatively, you may change a few group policies using gpedit.msc:

  1. Run gpedit.msc.

  2. Enable Computer Configuration/Administrative Templates/Windows Components/Remote Desktop Services/Remote Desktop Session Host/Remote Session Environment/RemoteFX for Windows Server 2008 R2/Configure RemoteFX

  3. Enable Computer Configuration/Administrative Templates/Windows Components/Remote Desktop Services/Remote Desktop Session Host/Remote Session Environment/Enable RemoteFX encoding for RemoteFX clients designed for Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1

  4. Enable Computer Configuration/Administrative Templates/Windows Components/Remote Desktop Services/Remote Desktop Session Host/Remote Session Environment/Limit maximum color depth

  5. Reboot.
