xrdp not working

Hiya, I have an arch system with gnome (x11). I installed xrdp and xorgxrdp but connecting to the system from Windows doesn’t work. It says “some problem” and “giving up”. I do have ufw, but I allowed traffic on 3389 tcp.

Also, for some reason the system automatically sleeps sometimes, and  I cannot figure out a way to stop that from happening.

Thanks in advance!

Re: xrdp not working

Please keep forum posts to 'one problem per post' - open another topic for the 2nd problem. For both problems, you haven't provided us anything to go on. Don't paraphrase error messages, provide the actual messages and configuration you have made.

xorgxrdp is not in the official repos, so ask a mod to move your post to the AUR forum by clicking the 'Report" button on your original post.

Lastly, connection a graphical session from a Windows machine sounds like complete overkill. Can you not achieve your goal by simply connecting to your Linux instance via ssh from a Powershell? What are you trying to achieve?

Re: xrdp not working

I figured out the sleeping problem myself, and I wanted a graphical interface because this PC will be a server that me and another person will use, and I thought I could make it easier to use for him (without having to explain ssh). But I will just use ssh if the graphical interface is practically impossible
