[GTALUG] Remote Desktop [ RDP files and Remmina ]

[David Thornton]

I have some experience with remmina, in as much as I help my wife with it,
when it breaks.

She's ubuntu at home, and uses the snap package. The apt one doesn't work.

she has auto update on , so when it breaks it most frequently a breaking
update.

As far as I'm aware The folk at her workplaces have't done anything
special for her, she looks like a windows client.

I snap revert from time to time , and it works... then a new update comes
and it updates, and it works.

In a word (term) : "under development"
