[11:24] <khoover> hey, if i rdesktop into a system, can I use devices plugged into the rd source on the rd destination?
[18:37] <mimcpher> khoover: by "source" do you mean the machine running rdesktop, and "destination" the one you're viewing?
[18:38] <mimcpher> khoover: either way, I don't think rdesktop does the USB forwarding stuff.
[19:33] <khoover> mimcpher yeah
[19:34] <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?
[19:36] <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
[19:38] <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.
[19:39] <mimcpher> forwarding disks is possible
[19:39] <mimcpher> man rdesktop.
[19:41] <khoover> well. that works.
[20:34] <dscassel> Sup!
[20:49] <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/
[20:55] <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
[20:59] <mimcpher> My understanding is along the lines of that page
[21:00] <mimcpher> (hence my quip to "use windows" -- since rdp, but not rdesktop, does it)
[21:03] <azend> yeah..
