| khoover | hey, if i rdesktop into a system, can I use devices plugged into the rd source on the rd destination? | 11:24 |
|---|---|---|
| mimcpher | khoover: by "source" do you mean the machine running rdesktop, and "destination" the one you're viewing? | 18:37 |
| mimcpher | khoover: either way, I don't think rdesktop does the USB forwarding stuff. | 18:38 |
| khoover | mimcpher yeah | 19:33 |
| khoover | didn't have much better terms for it other than client/server, didn't feel right | 19:34 |
| khoover | how would i forward a USB port, then? | 19:34 |
| mimcpher | khoover: use windows :P | 19:36 |
| khoover | -.- | 19:36 |
| khoover | the point of this is to avoid it | 19:36 |
| mimcpher | Or do usb forwarding over not-rdp | 19:36 |
| khoover | oh, no, the usb forwarding is a secondary bit. in essence, the drive with my music is hooked up to my windows computer, for ease of use on it, and I can rdp in whenever i need it. | 19:38 |
| khoover | and I want to sync a...*shudder*...iPod | 19:38 |
| khoover | so, was thinking, have the windows box pick up an iPod in a USB port here, then sync to it. | 19:38 |
| mimcpher | forwarding disks is possible | 19:39 |
| mimcpher | man rdesktop. | 19:39 |
| khoover | well. that works. | 19:41 |
| dscassel | Sup! | 20:34 |
| azend | <mimcpher> khoover: either way, I don't think rdesktop does the USB forwarding stuff. | 20:49 |
| azend | yes | 20:49 |
| azend | rdp does it but rdesktop does not | 20:49 |
| azend | <mimcpher> khoover: either way, I don't think rdesktop does the USB forwarding stuff. | 20:49 |
| azend | whoops | 20:49 |
| azend | http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-networking-3/rdesktop-usb-redirect-630349/ | 20:49 |
| azend | hmm | 20:55 |
| azend | actually this topic seems to be incorrect | 20:55 |
| azend | reading the rdesktop man page it seems to do a lot more | 20:55 |
| mimcpher | My understanding is along the lines of that page | 20:59 |
| mimcpher | (hence my quip to "use windows" -- since rdp, but not rdesktop, does it) | 21:00 |
| azend | yeah.. | 21:03 |
