The protocole used is RDP (Remote Desktop Protocole). It has to be enabled first on the remote machine.
We use the build in windows application “Remote desktop” to connect to the remote machine. If you are connected through the IGE network, it easy: just but the correct credential.
If you are outside the IGE, it's a bit more tricky because you need first to setup a SSH tunnel and use it.
Open Putty, then configure it as follows:
ssh.ige-grenoble.fr
ssh
ssh_tunnel
12345
(can be almost everything, but remember it)<ip of the machine>:3389
The port 3389 is the default one use by RDPAdd
Open
It then ask for your credential to connect to the ssh.ige-grenoble.fr
passerelle. It's your IntraGere login/password.
Once logged in, your SSH tunnel is up ! Do not closed the windows !
Desktop remote access
application.computer
to 127.0.0.1:12345
(i.e. localhost and whatever was your port in the previous part)Connexion
Tada! Now fill the correct credential to log on the machine.
SSH is handle way more easily in linux… Also, the dedicated software for remote access is Remmina. So first install remmina :
sudo apt install remmina
Remmina support different protocols, including RDP to connect to a windows machine, but you may need to install it:
sudo apt install remmina-plugin-rdp
Launch Remmina and create a new profile:
Enter the disired Name / Group and the correct IP address, User name, Password and Domain
Go to the SSH tunnel
tab, and click on
Save it, then double click on the profile to open the connexion.
