I have a Ubuntu machine that I would like external users to connect to using RDP. Connecting from an internal network works perfectly fine.
But users outside of my network,who use the public IP, can not connect using RDP. Although they can SSH. What could be the reason?
Note that I have checked the following already:
Port 3389 is listening to incoming connections
sudo netstat -an | grep "LISTEN" | grep ":3389"
tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:3389 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN
If it is a Firewall relevant issue I have issued the following command
sudo ufw disable
Firewall stopped and disabled on system startup
I have installed Ubuntu mate, and it works fine when connecting from a computer internal to the network
I have issued the command
/etc/init.d/xrdp startI tried the above based on what was discussed in
Unable to do remote desktop using xrdp
What else can I try to enable access using RDP from the outside world?
Thank you!
