Connect to Ubuntu 11.04 from Windows via Remote Desktop
Last week we showed you how to use Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) to connect from Ubuntu to Windows 7. Today, I will show you how to use the same Remote Desktop Protocol to connect from Windows to Ubuntu 11.04 Natty Narwhal. If you ever wanted to connect to Ubuntu via Remote Desktop Connection, then this tutorial will help you do that.
There are many ways to connect to Ubuntu from Windows and RDP protocol is just one of the many ways.
