RDP

In this guide, we demonstrate how to use the NoPorts Tunnel to RDP on a remote machine to localhost:3389 so we can access the RDP service locally.

Prerequisites

Before continuing, make sure that the following steps have been completed:

• NoPorts has been installed on both machines.

• Your NoPorts atSigns are activated, and the associated keys are saved locally.

If you haven’t completed these steps, follow the appropriate installation guide on the Installation Instructions page, then return here once finished.

Command Line

The command should look like:

npt -f @<client> -t @<device> -d <device name> -r @<relay> -p 3389 -l 33389

Example:

npt -f @alice_client -t @alice_device -d my_server -r @rv_am -p 3389 -l 33389

Now you can connect to localhost:33899 in your favorite RDP client.
