Remmina “unable to establish connection to RDP server:” to macbook












0















I am running ubuntu 18.04 lts. My remmina has worked fine, connecting to windows and other linux machines. But it has now refused to connect to my mac book.
The server is fine. Ping, nmap, ssh all work.
I have chosen RDP protocol and TLS for security and has enabled "screen sharing" on macbook.
But remmina still won't connect...



What should I do.

  • Try navigating to /home/$USERNAME/.freerdp folder and delete the file known_hosts. Next time you try to connect the file will be regenerated. Let me know if it works.

  • I believe it is VNC and not RDP. At least that is the only way I could get it to work: askubuntu.com/a/774006/231142

  • Hi guys, thank you for your helps. But removing the known_hosts file didn't work...

  • When I use VNC instead, it keeps sending me authentication errors saying my password to user is incorrect (even though it is correct because ssh worked...)

  • The password is limited to like 8 characters or something like that. It is a different password than ssh. I am not in front of mine as the moment to test it.
