Comparing MeshCentral 2 to ScreenConnect
- 
@scottalanmiller I think RDP support on Linux would be possible if I added Guacamole within MeshCentral. Even on Windows, ClickOnce is not friendly, causes anti-virus warnings and may go away.

That would be cool, but what about just allowing Reminna or some such to connect?

Although I'd probably prefer Guacamole to that myself

 - 
RDP is more for testing than anything.

Updated to 0.2.6-n just now.
 - 
And now 0.2.6-o on the weekend

 - 
Just updated to 0.2.6-p!

Any reason you have not set it to auto-update? I may have missed it in a previous post.

I have mine set, but it doesn't seem to do it.

Oh. Do you have it setup as a restricted user?

Yeah. It's still just a testing box anyhow. I'd rather it run as a restricted user if possible when I put it into production.
I can just make the build process part of the start up scrip.

I check in every morning and before shutting down at night and sometimes when I think about it during the day.

based on @JaredBusch post https://mangolassi.it/topic/18767, restricted user mode breaks updates and probably breaks automatic updates too.

Yeah. I can live with that. Right now, it's just for me. If I were to build a production install, I'd go with a full setup like @JaredBusch 's.

It was in the setup guide.

Missed a few updates, been a busy week. On 0.2.6-x now!
 - 
One more for the night, 0.2.6-y

Looks like this is a non-starter at work... Boss just renewed TeamViewer..... might set up a digital ocean or vultur instance for personal use... There seems to be a lot of vultur users on here but I've already got an account on DO, any significant pros / cons to either platform?

For basic things they are very similar. Exact pricing fluctuates occasionally.
