SeamlessRDP

SeamlessRDP is an extension to RDP servers that allows publishing Windows applications from an RDP server to your local desktop, similar to RAIL/RemoteApp.

SeamlessRDP requires Windows Server 2008r2 or later to operate correctly.

Contributing

The development of SeamlessRDP takes place on GitHub. Feel free to get involved! We welcome all contributions.

Building SeamlessRDP

The ServerExe directory contains the server-side components of SeamlessRDP: the SeamlessRDP shell and window hooks. It uses a autotools-based build system.

Building from a source archive (seamlessrdp-1.0.tar.gz)

cd seamlessrdp-1.0
./configure
make

Building from a git checkout

cd ServerExe
./autogen.sh
./configure
make

Cross-compiling from Linux

With a cross-compiling environment for Windows installed, tell configure that you want to build for a Windows platform by running ./configure with --host set to a suitable triplet for your cross-compiling setup. Examples:

./configure --host=i686-pc-mingw32  # for 32-bit Windows
./configure --host=x86_64-w64-mingw32  # for 64-bit Windows

Installing

After compiling with make, you can create a zip file with the required contents.

zip -j seamlessrdp.zip .libs/seamlessrdpshell.exe .libs/seamlessrdp??.dll .libs/seamlessrdphook??.exe

This creates a seamlessrdp.zip file that can be transfered onto to your Windows server and unpacked to any location you'd like, such as C:\SeamlessRDP\.

Example usage

Starting notepad.exe via SeamlessRDP using rdesktop:

rdesktop -A 'C:\SeamlessRDP\seamlessrdpshell.exe' -s 'notepad.exe'
