Hi, I'm trying to get freeRDP working on my home network. It should be easy, I figure, but I've missed something....
I have my main Ubuntu 20.04.1 Linux machine (aka desktop.local) and a Win10 machine in my garage (aka garage.local), both all patched and up-to-date. They're connected by a very vanilla Ethernet LAN, with a single router/switch that also provides a firewall, and that's all good. I can ping the garage machine, and from the garage I have a Samba connection back to my desktop. The garage machine is Win10 Pro, and didn't have any user accounts on it. I turn it on and I login as "User" with no password... that's how it was when I got it second--hand. I think I must have registered with Microsoft when I first got it, but don't really recall. I've installed xfreerdp v2.2.0 on desktop.local, but just can't connect to garage.local. I think there's perhaps two issues.... one is certificates, and the other is user authentication. I *have* read the user manual ;), but it doesn't tell me what I need to do on the Win10 machine. I think I've got around the certificate issue by using -cert-ignore. I did try /cert:tofu but that didn't seem to work. Given where I'm using it, I'm not really worried about whether I have a cert or not, so long as it works. I tried various combinations of /u:user and /p: but that didn't work. I then set up an account on the Win machine as a "Family and friends/No Microsoft account" user for myself, but couldn't seem to use that for xfreerdp. :( Below is the xfreerdp output when I try to connect. Can someone please give me a pointer as to how to proceed? Thanks Frank frank@desktop:~$ xfreerdp /u:frank /p:password /v:garage.local /cert-ignore [17:16:29:286] [17408:17409] [INFO][com.freerdp.core] - freerdp_connect:freerdp_set_last_error_ex resetting error state [17:16:29:286] [17408:17409] [INFO][com.freerdp.client.common.cmdline] - loading channelEx rdpdr [17:16:29:286] [17408:17409] [INFO][com.freerdp.client.common.cmdline] - loading channelEx rdpsnd [17:16:29:286] [17408:17409] [INFO][com.freerdp.client.common.cmdline] - loading channelEx cliprdr [17:16:29:605] [17408:17409] [INFO][com.freerdp.primitives] - primitives autodetect, using optimized [17:16:29:777] [17408:17409] [INFO][com.freerdp.core] - freerdp_tcp_is_hostname_resolvable:freerdp_set_last_error_ex resetting error state [17:16:29:847] [17408:17409] [INFO][com.freerdp.core] - freerdp_tcp_connect:freerdp_set_last_error_ex resetting error state [17:16:29:159] [17408:17409] [ERROR][com.freerdp.core.transport] - BIO_read returned a system error 104: Connection reset by peer [17:16:29:159] [17408:17409] [ERROR][com.freerdp.core] - transport_read_layer:freerdp_set_last_error_ex ERRCONNECT_CONNECT_TRANSPORT_FAILED [0x0002000D] [17:16:30:235] [17408:17409] [INFO][com.freerdp.core] - freerdp_tcp_is_hostname_resolvable:freerdp_set_last_error_ex resetting error state [17:16:30:304] [17408:17409] [INFO][com.freerdp.core] - freerdp_tcp_connect:freerdp_set_last_error_ex resetting error state [17:16:30:615] [17408:17409] [ERROR][com.freerdp.core.transport] - BIO_read returned a system error 104: Connection reset by peer [17:16:30:615] [17408:17409] [ERROR][com.freerdp.core] - transport_read_layer:freerdp_set_last_error_ex ERRCONNECT_CONNECT_TRANSPORT_FAILED [0x0002000D] [17:16:30:615] [17408:17409] [ERROR][com.freerdp.core] - freerdp_post_connect failed On Sat, Oct 3, 2020 at 4:56 PM <freerdp-devel-requ...@lists.sourceforge.net> wrote: > Welcome to the FreeRDP-devel@lists.sourceforge.net mailing list! > > To post to this list, send your message to: > > freerdp-devel@lists.sourceforge.net > > General information about the mailing list is at: > > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freerdp-devel > > If you ever want to unsubscribe or change your options (eg, switch to > or from digest mode, change your password, etc.), visit your > subscription page at: > > > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/options/freerdp-devel/drifter.frank%40gmail.com > > > You can also make such adjustments via email by sending a message to: > > freerdp-devel-requ...@lists.sourceforge.net > > with the word `help' in the subject or body (don't include the > quotes), and you will get back a message with instructions. > > You must know your password to change your options (including changing > the password, itself) or to unsubscribe without confirmation.
