Hi guys,

 

I have a small machine hosted in a datacentre with a single IP.

 

I have installed a windows VM and I can access via VNC using the IP of my server.

 

Can I "Port Forward" an RDP port to access my Win 10 Machine?

 

Any advice appreciated!!

Guacamole is a good and easy to setup option, especially when paired with a reverse proxy. However, some of us want to do this using the native RDP client over the internet (primarily because it's more performant). Opening up a firewall port is a bad idea (security risk). The safest way I've found to do it is to use a tunnel:
