As of this writing, I’m using 64-bit Rocky Linux 8.4 that came with GNOME by default.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since this version already has the GUI that is GNOME, this will mainly work for the settings I have. I know there are issues if you use other GUI packages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Setup EPEL Repository<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

First, become the root user since the setup requires superuser privileges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

su -<\/code><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Run update to make sure your install is up-to-date<\/p>\n\n\n\n

yum update<\/code><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Run the following command to install EPEL Repository <\/p>\n\n\n\n

yum install epel-release<\/code><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Install and Enable XRDP<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Now you can enable EPEL Repository and install Xrdp server using the following command<\/p>\n\n\n\n

dnf --enablerep=epel -y install xrdp<\/code><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a>
After the installation is done, enable xrdp using the following command<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

systemctl enable xrdp --now<\/code><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Firewall Configuration<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Also, let xrpd go through the firewall. Assign the correct port if you are not using the default 3389 for TCP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

firewall-cmd --add-port=3389\/tcp<\/code><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Make the rule permanent using the following command<\/p>\n\n\n\n

firewall-cmd --runtime-to-permanent<\/code><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Connect Using Windows RDP<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Now you should be able to connect to Rocky Linux using Windows RDP. Make sure that the user you are using for login is not already logged in on the server or the RDP session won’t connect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Enjoy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
