I am looking for a sure fire way of installing xFREERDP 11 on the Ubuntu 12.04 environment as my attempts have failed so far.

You can install install xFREERDP 11 using a Terminal.

Install the freerdp-x11 package using the command below.

sudo apt-get install freerdp-x11

Reference

Command syntax for freerdp-x11 is:

xfreerdp [options] server[:port] [[options] server[:port] ...]

  • hello , i have used this command , but cant seem to access the application , i cant find the exe file so to speak to actually run the program from an icon – RyanT Jul 22 '14 at 15:33
  • also once this command is run should this literally allow me to access the rdp client and use it to connect to servers etc or are further commands needed once the install command has been run. – RyanT Jul 22 '14 at 16:18
  • you can use the "remmina" package as a GUI front end for it, too – rogerdpack Jan 22 '15 at 14:03
