There is no way to log into an alternative domain from the web gui. At the moment, I have resolved the issue by setting a static variable in the index-debug.html file.

Without modification to the current code, one can only log into a PC locally.

Hello pneumatic.

Where do you set a static variable in the index-debug.html file? Thanks.

cmot-weasel suggests the following modification:

  • '&user=' + encodeURIComponent($('rdpuser').value.trim()) + '@Domain'

This is in the 'webroot\index-debug.html' but it won't be of much use to
you because this project went commercial and they stopped developing it
before useful functionality.

There are way too many bugs.

Hello pneumatic.

Thank you very much for your information.

The following website of FreeRDP-WebConnect did not show any progress and which company commercialized this project.

http://freerdp.net/

The following post claimed that

Cloudbase solutions has been working on improving FreeRDP-WebConnect on their branch

#27

Do you mean that Cloudbase solutions commercialized this project?

Cloudbase solutions still provides open-source FreeRDP-WebConnect at GitHub.

https://github.com/cloudbase/FreeRDP-WebConnect

However, no any plugins such as clipboard, printer, shared drive have been developed for FreeRDP-WebConnect.

Note that clipboard and printer are two default plugins for distributed RDP provided by Windows 7.

As far as I remember, the Cloudbase fork is dedicated exclusively to
connecting up to Hyper-V VM consoles - you cannot use it for connecting to
regular non-Hyper V Windows devices. So it is pretty much useless outside
of that context.

I'm only speculating that the WebConnect developers went a commercial
route. But I can't imagine coming so close to a finished product and then
simply stopping. That would be nonsense.

So there must be a better explanation. As with most nonsense, this usually
involves money.

I actually offered money for someone to fix the issue and was directed to
guac-dev.org, which is actively developed. Unfortunately, they've designed
their product to be infinitely tedious, requiring individual management of
users to PCs, which doesn't make a whole lot of sense for the vast majority
of businesses.

I'm currently using a ThinRDP trial but this is quite primitive - it won't
even provide basic logging. For example, they sell it by "concurrent
connection" but won't provide me with the number of concurrent connections.
So I have no idea how much it will cost and therefore can't ask management
for money to purchase it.

I tried to buy RemoteSpark but discovered that it passes the username,
domain and password in the clear in the URL. This is obviously
inexcusable. But the developers didn't seem to care.

It is all idiocy. I'm throwing money at my monitor but nobody will take it.

Hi @pneumatic,

We merged yesterday all the Cloudbase fork work into:
https://github.com/FreeRDP/FreeRDP-WebConnect

As usual all this work is going to remain Open Source.

While it's true that at Cloudbase we are mostly focused on Hyper-V and OpenStack, we want to contribute to FreeRDP and FreeRDP-WebConnect in a way in which it works on any possible scenario involving RDP, including plain simple RDP sessions on a Windows workstation or server.

I'm closing the issue now, since it refers to a status of this repository and the project which can be considered obsolete at the current stage. Please feel free to reopen it at any time or to open a new issue.
