Ubuntu – Which RDP client have possibility to mount disks from client PC

11.10rdpsoftware-recommendationtsclient

Until Ubuntu 11.10 came out Terminal Server Client in Ubuntu 11.04 offered the possibility of mounting hard drives from client side.

I just wonder if there is such client that offer such possibility.

I tried Remotedesktop Client, Remmina Desktop Client, and Remote Desktop Viewer. They are all lack of this function?

I really need it to use files from my Ubuntu PC on Windows Server 2003 PC downstairs from RDP client on Ubuntu 11.10.

Please help.

I've just tried rdesktop from command line. To mount your local hard drives you can use rdesktop with -r option command ... It's working :)

Install Ubuntu Tweak tool

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:tualatrix/ppa 
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install ubuntu-tweak

and go to file type manager and add rdp.

I suggest you will use remmina as .rdp's default application

But this solution may not fit your question, because .rdp files taken from Windows are different than what remmina uses. So it may be irrelevant to associate remmina with .rdp.

So you may rename files saved by remmina to .rdp so that you can benefit from associating remmina with .rdp files.
Another solution may force tsclient to work on ubuntu 12.04:

Download the tsclient package and the relevant dependencies from packages.ubuntu.com.

For a typical 64-bit architecture, the following command would install tsclient for you:
```
sudo dpkg --force-all -i tsclient_0.150-4ubuntu2_amd64.deb
```
For 32-bit system:
```
sudo dpkg --force-all -i tsclient_0.150-4ubuntu2_i386.deb`
```

According to the todo list on github rdp-support is not yet implemented.
