Hi,
Does anyone know of a good program for doing RDP to windows servers on C-7?
The "Remote desktop viewer" program that comes with C7 is not reliable for me. I frequently have multiple long running RDP sessions and the keyboard will stop responding. The only way I can find to get it started again is to restart the program and login to the servers again.
In addition, I cannot find a way to make copy and paste work.
On the plus side, I like the way Remote desktop viewer displays the desktops in tabs.
Suggestions?
Regards,

KRDC? I'm pretty sure KRDC works fine in C7. (Though, I never use CentOS as a desktop, so YMMV.)

I used rdesktop on CentOS and on maemo (which is clone of clone of Debian) handheld for quite some time, and it is still available on CentOS 7 (via either base or epel yum repository) - I just checked and it works on CentOS 7 the same way as it did on earlier CentOS systems.
I hope, this helps.

have you tried xfreerdp ?
I'll second this - it's what I use on my C7 workstation to access the couple of WinDoze servers. Under C6, I was using rdesktop, then found xfreedp, and changed. One thing that annoyed me, at least under 6, was that after I logged off the Windoze box, one of my 8 xterms, randomly, would crash. NOT the one I started rdesktop from, but another.

I started playing with it yesterday but the problem I have is I cannot get it to prompt for a password unless I start it from a terminal. That is a non-starter for me.
I need something I can run from <alt><f2> and be able to connect.

have you tried something like that in <alt><f2>
xfreerdp /u:USER /p:PASSWORD /w:1200 /h:600 /v:SERVER-ADDRESS

Yes, I have. The problem is it leaves the unencrypted passwords in my history. Other than that, Xfreerdp seems to work fine.

I just use
xfreerdp /u:myuser /v:serverip
Then it will ask for the password and it doesn't stay in history.

Hummm, I have epel enabled and when I try do yum install rdesktop, I get "No package rdesktop available."

Use freerdp rather than rdesktop, as rdesktop has been parked AFAIK, with the last release Oct-2014. Freerdp is included with CentOS.

Thanks, John. It is good to know.

Thanks, I will take a look at that. I was not aware of it.

Remmina is the one I use but I have not looked to see if Centos is supported but I use it daily and heavily.

On the plus side, I like the way Remote desktop viewer displays the desktops in tabs.

Looks like Remmina can be found in Nux Dextop repo's - https://li.nux.ro/repos.html
