Remote Desktop to Linux Servers

Remote Desktop to Linux Servers Ubuntu

Remote Desktop Services (RDS), known as Terminal Services. RDS is Microsoft's implementation of thin client, where Windows software and the entire desktop of the computer running RDS, are made accessible to a remote client machine that supports Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP). With RDS, only software user interfaces are 

transferred to the client system. All input from the client system is transmitted to the server, where software execution takes place.
