puppy with rdesktop installed
hi. i installed puppy and i couldn't find rdesktop to connect remotely from my pc to puppy. tried to install vncserver but didn't have any luck, there was just a grey screen, no menu, no icons, that's why i want to use rdesktop. anyone knows a puppy project with rdesktop preinstalled?
If you want to remotely control a linux computer with a windows computer I suggest
Xming along with putty.
In that situation all the linux computer needs is ssh (or dropbear) running on an active network.
Here's how I did it with a raspberry pi 2

Slacko 6.3.2 32-bit has a program called rdesktop in /usr/bin.

@GoingNUTs, several years ago presented an excellent package for this very need of allowing remote users to get a desktop on a Linux PC.
Once added, anyone merely, at another LAN PC (no matter if that PC is Windows/MACs/Linux (via rdesktop)/Android/Apple) to run the RDP client to gain access to the Linux PC with @GoingNUTs addition. Rdesktop is ONLY a client for accessing other PCs. It does NOTHING for allowing others to access the PC with Rdesktop. For that, @GoingNUTs solution paves the way to give a desktop to elsewhere on your LAN/WAN. In summary:
Really a neat solution for being able to access the PC from anywhere else in the home/office without any need to walk over to it.
Hope this is helpful.

- Install @GoingNUTs addition to your Linux PC;
- Then, go to another PC and login to your Linux PC from the other PC without installing anything to your other PC (everything is already there for you to run).
