Connecting using the RDP application

In Kaspersky Thin Client, you can connect via RDP to a remote environment, such as Microsoft Remote Desktop Services (MS RDS). The table below describes the available connection methods and peripherals for Windows and Linux operating systems.

To redirect peripherals to a Linux remote desktop, install Kaspersky USB Redirector for the xRDP server in the guest operating system. Kaspersky USB Redirector is not included in the distribution kit. You can request the extension from Kaspersky.

Instructions for connecting to a remote environment are given in a separate article.
