RDP authentication on mikrotik. Is it possible?

Thu May 25, 2017 10:10 am

Hi all

Is it possible to set the mikrotik to ask for a username and password before it forwards you to the internal desktop machine?
The reason I am asking is this PC is windows 10 home edition and it does not have the option for rdp to ask credentials before showing you the actual desktop. (i manualy added the rdp function on the home edition so its not like its part of a workgroup)

Any suggestions welcome.

Thanks

no.

anyway, you can setup a vpn or use port knocking. use the wiki to get more information.

Windows 10 home does not have a rdp server so it is not possible to use unless you install something. My advice would be team viewer. Works great and does not require any port to be open to your pc only out.
