At the urging of Sandro Bonazzola, I'm bringing up something that was
being discussed on Twitter earlier today: supporting RDP with KVM
directly.
As it turns out, about four years ago, Datto developed support for
QEMU to display to RDP in a similar fashion to what was done for SPICE
years ago. The way this was done was by patching QEMU[1] to send
buffers to a service called RDPMux[2], which would provide RDP
connections. Additionally, libvirt was adjusted to support this[3].
Hi Neil,
what would be the advantage over VNC?
Recently I played with virtual desktops from US to Italy and VNC was
completely useless while SPICE worked great. So I'm not sure why QEMU
needs to support RDP unless it can provide the same level of usability
as SPICE (which however can only achieve it through the paravirtualized
QXL graphics adapter).
