remote desktop

[kaleb]

Im a student and im prettty new with sabayon linux 4.1 and i just wanted someone thats an expert with sabayon to help me out. i wanted to know how to remote desktop from sabayon linux 4.1 to windows. Please help

I use an application called tsclient (or terminal server client). It looks and acts extremely similar to the remote desktop client for windows (including the ability to map hard drives).

how do you install it

I never used it, but I assume that you can install it normally using equo,
as root:

Code: Select all

equo install --ask tsclient

you should read some documentation on the Wiki, to understand better entropy:
http://wiki.sabayonlinux.org/index.php?title=Entropy
It is asking to you to update the repositories, use:

Code: Select all

equo update


to do it.

If you update the repositories, it will know which are the latest packages available,
and which one are installable.
