Rustdesk's lesser known features (github.com)

Rustdesk started as an open-source alternative to TeamViewer. Now, it offers more than just remote desktop access, making it handy for casual self-hosting.

With no need for (dyn)DNS, port forwarding, or a VPN, you can get:

  • Remote terminal
  • File transfer
  • Tunneling (similar to SSH port forwarding)
  • Remote desktop

I think it’s a solid choice if you have a simple one-server setup.

I think its a completely different use case. MobaXterm is a fancy ssh/rdp tool with some extra features, while rustdesk is an alternative to teamviewer or anydesk - tools for remote support.

Disclaimer: I haven't used rustdesk yet, I have no need for this use case.
