Summary
The documentation is heavily Windows-centric, providing step-by-step troubleshooting instructions that assume a Windows environment (e.g., registry edits, Group Policy Editor, Windows-specific processes like msrdc.exe). macOS receives a brief mention at the end, but Linux is not referenced at all. All command-line examples and troubleshooting steps are tailored to Windows tools and workflows, with no Linux equivalents or guidance.
Recommendations
  • Add equivalent troubleshooting steps for Linux users, including how to diagnose and resolve RDP connectivity issues using common Linux RDP clients (e.g., xfreerdp, Remmina).
  • Provide Linux-specific commands or configuration file edits for switching between TCP and UDP, and for capturing logs or process dumps.
  • Include examples of how to check for client and server status on Linux, such as using systemctl, journalctl, or netstat.
  • Mention and link to popular Linux RDP clients and how to update or restart them.
  • Ensure that all major troubleshooting steps are presented for Windows, macOS, and Linux in parallel, or at least reference where Linux users can find equivalent guidance.
