FreeRDP Webconnect doesn't work on CentOS 6.5 #43

umeshbhatt25 commented 10 years ago

I have installed FreeRDP webconnect on Cent OS 6.5 and started wsgate service I can see following messages after service started successfully: Listening on 172.22..:8444 Listening on 172.22..:8081

Now from another machine I opened Chrome browser and entered the details of a windows machine for Remote console. But I don't see console coming. Am I missing anything here?

I found it working if port is changed to default port like 80 and 443 but for other port it is not working. I am already running tomcat web server in this machine on 8080 and 8443 ports. How to make it work for other ports?

Regards, Umesh

FreeRDP-WebConnect ("http://freerdp.net/download.html", NOT provided by cloudbase) only works on default ports 80 and 443.

Those downloads are very obsolete and will be replaced. We merged the Cloudbase fork into this repository yesterday, so you can expect also the binaries to be updated ASAP.

Ideally those binaries will be generated by Jenkins jobs on any new commit.

From now on the Cloudbase fork will be just a WIP fork, merging upstream as soon as feature become ready, working with the rest of the community.

Unfortunately cloudbase's FreeRDP-WebConnect does not work for the command-line connection to Windows 7 from Ubuntu 12.04

xfreerdp -u username -p password remote-desktop-ip-address

will generate time-zone issue and connection fails.

It only works on the web-based remote desktop access.

Note that I download the source code from cloudbase's GitHub. git clone https://github.com/cloudbase/FreeRDP git clone https://github.com/cloudbase/FreeRDP-WebConnect

The same issue was also confirmed by a user in the issue #20.

cloudbase's FreeRDP-WebConnect needs to address the issue #20

Quote from the user pneumatic's comment "As far as I remember, the Cloudbase fork is dedicated exclusively to connecting up to Hyper-V VM consoles - you cannot use it for connecting to regular non-Hyper V Windows devices. So it is pretty much useless outside of that context."

Hi @winstonhong

You are using the wrong repos. The right ones are:

git clone https://github.com/FreeRDP/FreeRDP.git git clone https://github.com/FreeRDP/FreeRDP-WebConnect.git

The Cloudbase ones from now on are just for WiP feature development.

With the latest code it is working now.
