Remote Desktop Service

This document discusses configuring and using a Remote Desktop Service (RDS). It describes RDS as allowing remote access to a server without being physically present by using the Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) over TCP/IP. It provides instructions for installing and configuring an RDS server, including enabling required services, configuring the firewall to allow RDP traffic on port 3389, and verifying the status of the RDS service. It also explains that clients can access the RDS server by using the Remote Desktop Connection application on Windows and entering the server's IP address and Linux credentials.

What is RDS?
Working on TCP/IP model
What is RDS?

• It provide remote desktop services to the users, means accessing the server without physically
present at the place of server is called remote access.

• It uses the Remote Desktop Protocal (RDP).

• It runs on the Application layer.
• It provides remote connection between server and client (client is a device that wants the
access).
RDS Working on TCP/IP model
1. Application Layer :
• RDS resides architecturally at the TCP/IP application layer.
• Using the RDP protocol.

2. Transport layer:
• Here port address is attached
• This port no. is told to the firewall so the firewall allow that port to establish
connection and start communication.
• It use port no 3389 and TCP protocol

3. Network layer :
• IP address attached : this is the IP that is given statistically or manaully during the
network configuration.

4. DataLink Layer :
• Server machine MAC address is attached.

PRE-Requirements
Need static IP address on your server machine.
Network parameter.
RDS -> RDP Appliaction
Transport layer -> TCP ,Port no
Network Layer -> Ip address
Data link -> Machine Mac
Ip
Subnetmask
Gateway
DNS -> Server Machine VM ,VBox
1. First, start by installing the required dependencies for RDS server.
yum -y install epel-release

2.Now install rds :

yum -y install xrdp tigervnc-server

3. Once the installation is complete, start the rds-server service, enable it to

automatically start at system boot, and then verify its status using the systemctl
commands.

# systemctl start xrdp.service

# systemctl enable xrdp.service

# systemctl status xrdp.service

FireWall Configuration :

• firewall-cmd --permanent --zone=public --add-port=3389/tcp

• firewall-cmd –reload
Client
Configuration
How client can access it?

• Client machine can access it by using Client software from there devices .
• By the help of IP address of server machine.

• In windows there is preinstalled application setup that is:

• Remote Desktop Connection
• Here we give IP address of remote server with port no.
• After that a window will appear that want Linux user credentias
information here you write
1. Username or Root
2. User password or Root Password
