Description

View and use other desktops

Connections allows you to connect to and use other desktops. This can be a great way to access content or software on a different desktop operating system. It can also be used as a way to provide support to users who might need help.

A range of different operating systems can be connected to, including Linux and Windows desktops. You can also connect to virtual machines.

Connections uses the widely supported VNC and RDP protocols, and one of these must be enabled on the desktop that you want to connect to.

In the other systems

The newest version among them is 51.0, as upstream numbers it.

5744d3fe8e Lucas Holt net/gnome-connections: update to 51.0 (#1343)
196bbe449f Lucas Holt net/gnome-connections: add port (#1217)
Imports GNOME Connections 50.0 from the local FreeBSD ports tree and adapts it for MidnightBSD. The bundled gtk-frdp subproject supports FreeRDP 2 and 3. The current MidnightBSD FreeRDP 3 port cannot complete its own build because its OSS header probe misses the base header, so this port declares and was validated against the supported, installed FreeRDP 2 ABI it actually links. Validation: makesum, patch, build, fake, package, test (3/3), check-license, portlint -C (0 fatal), and git diff --check. ## Summary by Sourcery Add GNOME Connections 50.0 to the MidnightBSD ports tree. New Features: - Add GNOME Connections 50.0 as a MidnightBSD port for remote desktop access. Chores: - Register the new port and package its runtime dependencies, metadata, patches, and installed files. …
