Rustdesk - an Open Source, Self Hosted alternative to TeamViewer, AnyDesk, GoToAssist, and the like.

how did you create an account in your managing client to be able to use the addressbook feature?

How i will be able to connect to another machine outside my local network ? I set up my self hosting shows read green icon but not work accessing my friend computer ? What's the point of self host if just works with my own machines ? What am i doing wrong ?

Very easy guide to follow and got my server up and running. Question regarding their pro version. Would it be difficult or possible to convert what I have to pro?

bro loses me as soon as that terminal opens. not trying to get that involved. It would be great if there was a way normal people could get rustdesk installed.

Hi again. Since the last 2 years, after seeing your great tutorial, I used rustdesk for helping friends family. I am now in a quest... I just changed my laptop and I dont find the way to migrate/export the 'recent sessions' that Rustdesk has saved for me in this last 2 years.
Cant find solutions.
Any chance you could cover this aspect when changing PC/Laptop?
Thank you

Thank you for the very detailed guide. Your channel has really cool videos. Thanks for that!

So if I just want connect with my brother in another state do we both just need to install client version on both ends?

It would be great if you could do a video on setting up the "Pro" version of RustDesk, including the web portal portion. Great videos!

yayy a non-indian video on the topic

Thank you for such good detailed guide, which actually worked!

BEWARE: RustDesk is FAKE-Open-Souce only. The installation requires and uses Microsofts vcpkg which clearly states that it collects user data (telemetry) for Microsoft.

Thanks for the video! I am trying to get a version of the web interface available so I can sort computers and group them, is there a good one I can use, I checked on them and there seems to be a few but not sure how to start. thanks

Congratulations, the best!

i am using NPM for and my domain doesn't work. Do you know which port to put for NPM config>?

As always awesome, Awesome Open Source 👍

Later versions of Docker Compose use 'docker compose' (with a space) instead of 'docker-compose', so if you're having trouble starting the server, try a space instead of a hyphen.

Hi Brian. Two quick questions--hopefully you can help out. 1) Can Rustdesk be set up for concurrent use--for instance, if we have two users both accessing the same Windows machine at the same time? 2) Also, is it possible to try this app out using Rustdesk's in house servers before committing to a server of our own?

That's my biggest problem with Wayland. There are really no options for remote management of Wayland enabled Linux machines. Since wayland has been around quite some time, there's really no excuse for removing that kind of functionality from that graphics API.

can this be run witth multiple monitors?

Hello @brian
I would to use this on a LAN to support users without requiring internet but the part where u need to add same domain but routed on 21115..21119 ports is where i lost you, kindly elucidate on this

great video! their documentation is lacking. I couldn't even find how to configure the client.

this look interesting! thx gonna probably test it

Hey looking at your setup can I ask about the KDE middle sitting bottom bar... How did you set that up .....also the system monitor you have in the main bar, can you point me in the direction of what that is

Just tested the Windows client and it looks like it first runs as a portable app, with the in-app option to fully install it. Great for one-off assistance tasks.

I've been looking for a more affordable option for one of my GoToMeeting clients (his choice, not mine) since he's between jobs at the moment. And while he now has trouble affording the GTM subscription, he still very much needs help with his job-hunting efforts and other misc. tasks. He's a non-tech-savvy older gentleman and Rustdesk looks like an easy-to-use alternative for him. Plus, it means I can avoid the janky GTM web interface on my Linux laptop when I'm on the go. Thanks for sharing! 👍

For some reason the Android client is not connecting locally. Opened all the ports on my workstation (testing here) and still nothing.

This is the best guide I found for rustdesk configuration.

I think you probably need to explain just how much money is involved here because as nice as OSS is, deploying this can get pretty pricey

I’m remote from Bookworm Linux 12 to Windows 10. Keyboard doesn’t work. Please advise.

i tried this but i am not able to access server web console for changing saerver settings, users and passwords etc.

Anyone here will do custom setup this software for me ? I will pay for same.

if you are looking for a costless alternative, it is one, but open source it is not, at least not completely, freemium at best

Is there a demo of the Pro version somewhere?

Good evening:

Is it possible to install the Rustdesk client on an old server with windows 2003 server to be able to take remote control of it?

Thank you in advance

Looks like AnyDesk :)

thanks for explaining -k _ modyficator it make things much easier ;)
btw if someone hit this, is there any way to connect from inside and outside network at same time?

sorry it just says key mismatch without even trying to connect to anything... Guess its a bit buggy

Well done, this is a great video. I was able to set it up by following along. Is there a web admin interface like the paid version has?

Great Thk!
difficult to use without a 443 port :(

This all is in desperate need of being templated and deployed using Terraform, Ansible, or Pulumi. That'd wrap this up nicely and make it more polished instead of looking a bit mom-n-pop shop.

thank you for making it larger for mobile devices

how if i want using privacy mode?i want blank screen at the client side when i remote it

This video makes me laugh every few months. Toward the 3/4ths of the video where you have several screens going with the remote connection.. I mean it's very easy to follow, for me and many of us. But I always imagine the challenged people trying to follow it and getting confused which window is which since most of the time they can't even figure out what is going on with their one screen.

can a iphone be used as a drawing pad for computer with this

Can rustdesk pass geocoply dor bookmkaers
