Does RDP support this kind of "reverse connection" mode that VNC has? https://serverfault.com/questions/1100655/is-it-possible-to-make-a-reverse-rdp-connection-on-windows-server says not, which seems like a significant loss of functionality. The point of the `vnc --connect` mechanism anaconda currently has is to allow remote installs to a heavily-firewalled system, by having that system connect *out* to a server running on the system from which you will run the install, instead of the other way around. -- Adam Williamson (he/him/his) Fedora QA Fedora Chat: @adamwill:fedora.im | Mastodon: @adamw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx https://www.happyassassin.net -- _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
