title: RDP guide
|
||||
date: 2024-05-24
|

|
||||
|
||||
Many classes require using the UCLA SEASNet Remote Desktop. For example 115C requires you
|
||||
to use Cadence (yuck). Microsoft's Remote Desktop Protocol is proprietary, but there are
|
||||
open source clients which can connect to it. Here are three ways of connecting which work well.
|
||||
Please note that you need to be on the UCLA VPN.
|
||||
|
||||
## Using FreeRDP (Most reliable)
|
||||
In order to use FreeRDP to connect, start by downloading the .rdp file from [here](https://rds.seaslab.seas.ucla.edu/RDWeb/Pages/en-US/Default.aspx)
|
||||
|
||||
Then run the following command in terminal:
|
||||
```
|
||||
xfreerdp <filename>.rdp /u:<username> /p:<password> /gd:rds.seaslab.seas.ucla.edu/RDWeb/Feed/webfeed.aspx /dynamic-resolution
|
||||
```
|
||||
Do not put `seaslab\` before your username, otherwise you will not be able to log in.
|
||||
## Using Remmina (More user-friendly)
|
||||
Remmina is a more user-friendly way of connecting. It has nice features (like being able to fullscreen or resize the window).
|
||||
|
||||
To use it, simply download the .rdp file and then enter in your username and password. Nothing else needs to be done.
|
||||
|
||||
Sometimes, the rdp file will not work. This may be because the server domain changed. In order to get the correct domain, you
|
||||
can use the previous method. Look for the line which looks like this:
|
||||
```
|
||||
[02:39:22:381] [19509:19510] [WARN][com.freerdp.crypto] - CN = vmsrv07-rdsh01.seaslab.seas.ucla.edu
|
||||
```
|
||||
In this case, we can see that the server domain is `vmsrv07-rdsh01.seaslab.seas.ucla.edu`, which is different from the
|
||||
domain listed in the RDP file (`VMSRV08-RDCB02.SEASLAB.SEAS.UCLA.EDU` in my case). To fix this, right click in Remmina on the
|
||||
connection, select Edit, then replace the domain under "Server" in the Basic tab.
|
||||
|
||||
## Using SSH (Most direct way)
|
||||
If you are using MobaXTerm, you might have noticed that Cadence actually lives on a RHEL server. You are basically
|
||||
connecting to a Windows server, and then using an application on Windows (which implements SSH X forwarding) to connect back
|
||||
to a Linux server. It's obvious that Windows is just a "middleman" and that you actually don't need it.
|
||||
|
||||
You can take the RHEL server's address straight from MobaXterm (for me, it's `eeapps02.seas.ucla.edu`). Then, type the
|
||||
following command:
|
||||
```
|
||||
ssh -X -C <username>@eeapps02.seas.ucla.edu
|
||||
```
|
||||
And you're done!
