I don't use GNOME, or GDM, or RDP, but isn't https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-remote-desktop#headless-multi-user-remote-login https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-remote-desktop#headless... describing that?
> GNOME Remote Desktop supports integrating with the GNOME Display Manager (GDM)
to achieve remote login functionality. This feature is only available via the
RDP protocol. It works by the remote user first authenticating via a system
wide password, which gives access to the graphical login screen, where they can
login using their user specific credentials.
And then it seems to describe a pure-cli config process that you could set up once over SSH and then be able to RDP to the box thereafter.
Actually for that matter, the next section - https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-remote-desktop#headless-single-user https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-remote-desktop#headless... - appears to describe doing a single-user version of the same, explicitly running headless.
- szszrk 1y agoHave you actually tried setting it up on Wayland yourself? Please do. I've seen too many threads like this based on a hunch and docs, while it just doesn't work. I'll be more than happy to be proven wrong.
- accelbred 1y agoI've used it. It works fine. You connect with RDP, get a gdm login screen, and can log in.
- szszrk 1y agoThank you, I will definitely test it soon.
