#Linux community does someone know a tutorial for a kind of self made #ThinClient device?
I have an old notebook with Linux which does not anymore fit my power requirements, but I have a Linuc PC in my cellar which I use as working device over #RDP since a while and I love this way.
Is there a Remote-Desktop Linux Distribution (RDP, #VNC or #Moonlight) with the sole purpose to connect a VPN on startup and directly login to a Remote-Desktop and also redirect USB-Devices to remote?
Huh?
Our work from home setup is VPN and remote into the workstation at our desk in the office.
Regardless of how thick my client actually is, it’s a thin client for working from home.
Well that specifically is just remote desktop. As you said, doesn’t matter how thick, but if that’s all you use the machine for, I suppose you could call it a thin client.
A Thin Client (at least traditionally) means it has whatever it needs preloaded to interact with the remote server and does nothing if little else.
A “Thick Client” (never used that term professionally lol) would be just a machine that can do whatever without a remote server I suppose.
