   posted by HammerD on 15-Jan-2005 4:22:31 (5210 reads)
I am happy to (again) announce an update to the Remote Desktop client for OS4! As a bonus for OS4 users, we are proud to offer a full GUI for the client! Thanks to Simon Archer, Toaks, and restore2003 for all of their hard work and dedication to make this happen!

68K users: There is no need for you to download any update - the update is for OS4 users only! Time for you to upgrade ! :) You may download the the full archive for OS4 including the Remote Desktop binary (OS4 native), GUI, and documentation from the Remote Desktop Support Site for AmigaOS

Screenshots of the GUI are here: 1 2 3 4 5

@Ikir

XP Home does not support the Remote Desktop Protocol. You will need to ask Microsoft if you want that to change.

Don't expect them to listen.

Sadly I cannot see it as for some annoying reason the domain isn't resolving here even with NeoTrace.

[edit: and now its working....weird ]

Very nice looking GUI. Clean, clear and very usable.

Well it was a couple of days of hard graft, but worth it in the end.

Absolutely awesome... The interface is almost identical to the one you find from MS. That makes it easy to navigate if you are already use to the MS client.

OK, that does it. Now I have to make my pc dual bootable between 98SE and XP Pro. Untill now I've refused to "upgrade" to XP since 98SE fills all my needs on the pc, and IMO 98SE is the "best" OS M$ has produced (relatively lightweight and feature rich and it doesn't have the horrible kindergarden UI of XP).

BTW, has anyone compared RDesktop and the recently released beta version of TwinVNC? It'd have been interesting to see which one is the fastest.

Oh, and that's one nice looking GUI!

That was the general idea, yes. Familiarity lessens the learning curve. There are a few 'Amiga' specific bits in there, but on the whole, is is very similar.

upgrade? to OS4? *lol*

[edit: This kind of comment is completely uncalled for seeing as OS4 IS an upgrade for both the OS and the users alike. The only reason I haven't removed your comment is because it is so completely pointless.]

@DJBase

What's so funny about it? It *IS* the *latest* version of AmigaOS after all, so if you're still using 3.x you're not really up to date.
