Remmina is a free and open source remote desktop client for POSIX-based computer operating systems. It supports the Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP), VNC, NX, XDMCP, SPICE, X2Go and SSH protocols and uses FreeRDP as foundation.[4][5]

Packaging

Remmina is in the package repositories for Debian versions 6 (Squeeze) and later and for Ubuntu versions since 10.04 (Lucid Lynx).[6][7] As of 11.04 (Natty Narwhal), it replaced tsclient as Ubuntu's default remote desktop client.[8][9] The FreeBSD ports/package collection also contains it as a separate port and additional protocol-specific plugin ports.[10]

Use

A common use is to connect to Windows machines, to use servers and computers remotely via Remote Desktop Services,[11] by system administrators[12] and novice users.
