Can I connect with CoRD through a gateway? #61

Closed qazwart closed 10 years ago

qazwart commented 10 years ago

I have a client machine that is only accessible via a Linux gateway system. Remote Desktop for the Mac seems to have problems logging through this gateway, and since this is a Linux gateway, I can't use the Windows client at all.

When I log directly into the gateway and use rdesktop, I can connect. However, when I try to connect via the Mac MS Remote Desktop client with the gateway configured, I get

The gateway failed to connect with the message 501 Method RPC_IN_DATA is not defined in RFC 2068 and is not supported by the Servlet API.

Does CoRD have a way to go through a gateway system?

CoRD doesn't support TSG.

The gateway isn't a Terminal Server Gateway. It's just a network gateway. I sometimes tunnel through it via ssh to connect to other Linux system in our network.

It's why I can't use the Windows version of the Microsoft Remote Desktop. That insists that the gateway is an RD Gateway.

Anyway, thanks for your answer. I had a feeling that this would be pretty difficult. Maybe I can tunnel with the right ports via ssh to get this to work.

Thanks for your prompt answer.

Sorry for not reading closely enough... I'm not exactly clear what kind of gateway it is? A proxy?

qazwart commented 10 years ago

Not a proxy. Certain systems are behind the gateway server. For example, our production systems are behind this gateway. If I want to get to prod1, I need to do this:

$ ssh gateway   # Connect to the gateway
$ ssh prod1     # Connect to prod1

I can also create a tunnel too:

david@mysys:~$ ssh -A -t gateway -A prod1

I don't believe it's running any sort of RDP software besides rdesktop.

You should be able to accomplish it through SSH port forwarding, but that’s outside the scope of support we provide here.
