Remote Access To Desktop via Windows Terminal Server

COVID-19 has brought a big change into the lives of people all around the world. Offices are decentralizing, as many companies are providing ‘work from home’ options to their employees.

RDP or “Remote Desktop Protocol” is an essential tool provided by Microsoft for allowing remote access to Windows pc. Using this protocol, users can connect to apps or desktops hosted and delivered by remote desktop servers.

Usually, data is exchanged in a relatively secure way between server and client devices thanks to end-to-end encryption. Of course it is also important to secure your network before initiating Remote Desktop connections.

All Windows operating systems include this free tool “Windows Terminal Services” = Windows TSE or “Windows Remote Desktop Services” = Windows RDS to open an RDP connection. However, the installation on the server side is complex and requires strong Network Administration expertise, not to mention hours for deployment. Unfortunately, in the current state of the world, time is a resource most of us can’t afford.

Companies worldwide need a quick and affordable solution to set up the best teleworking conditions for their employees and ensure business continuity.

TSplus Remote Desktop Software offers an easy-to-use alternative to Windows RDS to deliver reliable and secure remote desktop connections without breaking your IT budget. In fact, TSplus Secure Remote Access and its range of companion tools are a great way to optimize your network infrastructure and drastically decrease expenses in software and hardware.

Professional tools and techniques are evolving at the speed of light and businesses are forced to keep up with the constant innovations to stay competitive and comply with the new working habits.

Some legacy apps serve critical business needs like CRM or Accountancy/Billing, but are outdated or obsolete which can cause compatibility issues with current operating systems, browsers and information technology infrastructures.

This is where Remote Desktop software like TSplus steps in the game. It provides a simple way to publish business applications on a central server and to deliver them across your network to all your employees regardless of the device or operating system they use. In this regard, it can be your best ally in software deployment and international expansion as it eliminates the need of updating and harmonizing all hardware and systems to support a specific application.

All you need for the entire structure to work on your legacy application is to create enough remote connections. TSplus makes remote desktop administration and access easy.

Remote Desktop Software for Windows 10

TSplus remote desktop solution can be used with Windows 10; just install the program on the server, and generate as many clients as needed (from 5 to unlimited depending on the Edition you purchase). The software can operate on any modern Windows version: windows OS, from Vista to W10 pro and Server 2003 to 2019 with 32 or 64 bits. However, Windows remote desktop services must be uninstalled to prevent conflict with TSplus.

It is easy to centrally manage settings over the entire network thanks to the AdminTool.

It works fine on all Windows OS, from Windows XP and W7 to W8 and Windows 10 pro! To know more about the hardware requirements, check the online documentation.

Remote Desktop Connection From Mac or Linux Workstations To Windows Server

What’s best, the software is also compatible with Mac and Linux Remote Desktop clients.

It allows remote to desktop connections to Windows machines from Mac and Linux using the classic Microsoft RDP method: “Remote Desktop client for Mac” or Linux Remote Desktop.

But the easiest way to connect to a Windows workstation from another Operating system is to use the Web Remote Desktop Client.

Web Access to Mac or Linux Remote Desktop

Some professional apps are only available for a specific operating system. For instance, Mac is probably the best platform for design and graphic software, when Linux is well known to be a more affordable solution supporting free and open source programs.

Your organization wants to provide its employees with the best possible tools, and therefore may choose to equip them with different types of devices.

However, they should still be able to access the company apps hosted on the central server! In order to avoid the hassle of installing multiple different programs according to the hardware, you can use a Terminal Server with a web Client. This will save you hours of setup and unnecessary investments! TSplus is one of these all-in-one solutions compatible with all operating systems.

TSplus Secure Remote Access includes its own built-in Web server and provides an HTML5 web client compatible with most common browsers: Safari, Edge, Firefox, Opera, Chrome...

It enables you to web enable your Windows Legacy applications and full desktops by publishing them in a snap on a Web Portal via the TSplus AdminTool. The sessions can be protected with web credentials (PIN code or email) and connections are well-secured with HTTPS and end-to-end encryption.

The web-portal is fully customizable with logo, background image, font type and color, etc. Several displays are possible such as the RemoteApp mode, Single Application or Full desktop.

How To Remote Desktop From Mac To Windows 10

It is now also possible to have direct access to the web Portal from the local desktop by installing the TSplus Web App, which is a Progressive Web App. It provides the same user experience as a local application! One click on the home screen icon and the user web portal is launched.

Thus, TSplus offers a multi-platform, multi-device, easy to use on Mobile and Tablets as well, with zero driver to install on the client side.

Which means that from a Macbook Air or a Linux workstation, opening a remote session only requires an internet connection. This is the easiest way to enable remote desktop access from a Mac or Linux to a Windows desktop or app!

Use a keyboard in a remote session

Microsoft Remote Desktop Download

Mac keyboard layouts differ from the Windows keyboard layouts.

• The Command key on the Mac keyboard equals the Windows key.
• To perform actions that use the Command button on the Mac, you will need to use the control button in Windows (for example Copy = Ctrl+C).
• The function keys can be activated in the session by pressing additionally the FN key (for example, FN+F1).
• The Alt key to the right of the space bar on the Mac keyboard equals the Alt Gr/right Alt key in Windows.

By default, the remote session will use the same keyboard locale as the OS you're running the client on. (If your Mac is running an en-us OS, that will be used for the remote sessions as well.) If the OS keyboard locale is not used, check the keyboard setting on the remote PC and change it manually. See the Remote Desktop Client FAQ for more information about keyboards and locales.

Support for Remote Desktop gateway pluggable authentication and authorization

Windows Server 2012 R2 introduced support for a new authentication method, Remote Desktop Gateway pluggable authentication and authorization, which provides more flexibility for custom authentication routines. You can now try this authentication model with the Mac client.
