Installation |
| 10 |
------------ |
| 11 |
rdesktop uses a typical GNU-style build procedure: |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
% ./configure [options] |
| 14 |
% make |
| 15 |
% make install |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
where documentation for [options] can be found by running "./configure --help". |
| 18 |
Usually no options are necessary. The default is to install under /usr/local, |
| 19 |
this can be changed with --prefix=directory. |

Invocation |
| 22 |
---------- |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
% rdesktop [options] server |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
where server is the name of the Terminal Services machine. Note: if you |
| 27 |
receive "Connection refused", this probably means that the server does not have |
| 28 |
Terminal Services enabled, or there is a firewall blocking access. |
| 29 |

The rdesktop manual page lists the possible options ("man rdesktop"). |
