RDP to CentOS 7 is okay from Windows 10 but not from Windows 7

Post by richardlrz » 2018/10/19 03:10:49

Hello I have recently tried to install xrdp on my centos 3.10.0-862.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Fri Apr 20 16:44:24 UTC 2018 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
I have no issue at all toRDP to my centOS 7 but always faulty out from windows 7, it claims network issue, and I have check my firewall, both 3389 tcp and udp are opened. no idea now, any one can light me up?

I did install xrdp by using following command:
rpm -Uvh https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/e ... noarch.rpm
yum -y install xrdp tigervnc-server
systemctl start xrdp
netstat -antup | grep xrdp
systemctl enable xrdp
firewall-cmd --permanent --add-port=3389/tcp
firewall-cmd --permanent --add-port=3389/udp
firewall-cmd --reload
chcon --type=bin_t /usr/sbin/xrdp
chcon --type=bin_t /usr/sbin/xrdp-sesman

I don't have an answer for your problem but I do see that you're running the original 7.5 kernel which means you haven't run yum update and should do so to get all the patches issued since 7.5 came out in April.
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.

CentOS 5 and 6 are deadest, do not use them.

A screenshot of the actual error would help, however I suspect the fix will be in the RDP client side.

Thanks for the update. I was able to reproduce the error in win7 rdp to centos. W7 to W10 connected without error.

Solution

install KB3080079 (TLS 1.2) on Win7
install KB2592687 (RDP 8.0) on Win7
Reboot Win7
Test
