#REMOTE DESKTOP PROFESSIONAL#
This version was introduced with Windows XP Professional and included support for 24-bit color and sound. This version was introduced with Windows 2000 Server, added support for a number of features, including printing to local printers, and aimed to improve network bandwidth usage.
#REMOTE DESKTOP SOFTWARE#
The T.128 application sharing technology was acquired by Microsoft from UK software developer Data Connection Limited. Later versions of Windows integrated the necessary support directly. The Citrix-provided DLLs included in Windows NT 4.0 Terminal Services Edition still carry a Citrix copyright rather than a Microsoft copyright.
#REMOTE DESKTOP LICENSE#
Microsoft required Citrix to license their MultiWin technology to Microsoft in order to be allowed to continue offering their own terminal-services product, then named Citrix MetaFrame, atop Windows NT 4.0.
The Terminal Services Edition of NT 4.0 relied on Citrix's MultiWin technology, previously provided as a part of Citrix WinFrame atop Windows NT 3.51, in order to support multiple users and login sessions simultaneously. Version 4.0 īased on the ITU-T T.128 application sharing protocol (during draft also known as "T.share") from the T.120 recommendation series, the first version of RDP (named version 4.0) was introduced by Microsoft with "Terminal Services", as a part of their product Windows NT 4.0 Server, Terminal Server Edition. Since the server improvements are not available downlevel, the features introduced with each newer RDP version only work on downlevel operating systems when connecting to a higher version RDP server from these older operating systems, and not when using the RDP server in the older operating system.
Microsoft provides the client required for connecting to newer RDP versions for downlevel operating systems.

The protocol is an extension of the ITU-T T.128 application sharing protocol. Microsoft currently refers to their official RDP client software as Remote Desktop Connection, formerly "Terminal Services Client". By default, the server listens on TCP port 3389 and UDP port 3389. RDP servers are built into Windows operating systems an RDP server for Unix and OS X also exists (for example xrdp). The user employs RDP client software for this purpose, while the other computer must run RDP server software.Ĭlients exist for most versions of Microsoft Windows (including Windows Mobile but the support has ended), Linux (for example Remmina), Unix, macOS, iOS, Android, and other operating systems. Remote Desktop Protocol ( RDP) is a proprietary protocol developed by Microsoft Corporation which provides a user with a graphical interface to connect to another computer over a network connection.
