| In general: we do NOT offer RDP over the internet (except to the Windows RDS system, see below). In order to connect to an RDP server, you need to be on our local net (including our cabled network, but excluding other university nets and eduroam). The best way to connect from outside, or when on eduroam, is to activate our institute's [[:VPN]] before starting an RDP session. | In general: we do NOT offer RDP over the internet (except to the Windows RDP gateway system, see below).
