How to use RDP to connect to Ubuntu desktop

Problem

I’d like to use RD Client app on iPad instead of VNC Viewer to connect to Ubuntu PC.

Solution

1. Use the following command via Terminal or SSH (i.e. Termius on iPad)

sudo apt install xrdp

2. Use RD Client on iPad to connect to the IP address of the Ubuntu machine. Lower the setting of display resolution on RD Client if you find the retina resolution is slow.

Notes: 

To uninstall the xrdp use the following command:

sudo apt remove xrdp
