RemoteApp configuration for application publishing
Note: The Community Edition supports only the HTTP application publishing mode.
RemoteApp is the publication of applications on
Microsoft RDS. To use it, you need a Windows Server with configured
RDS (RemoteApp). JumpServer can connect to
applications published on the RDS server and authorize in them.
This is mainly relevant for database management and web interface
applications.
To support RemoteApp, you need to configure JumpServer and the RDS
server.
Requirements:
- MS Windows Server 2016 or MS Windows Server 2019
- Installed RDS (Remote Desktop Services) role
- Installed OpenSSH ( you can install in from https://JS_IP/core/download/ )
Adding a Publishing Server to
JumpServer
Go to "System settings - RemoteApp", select the "RemoteApp machine" tab, and click "Create".

Application Publishing
You do not need to manually install applications on the RDS server; JumpServer provides ready-made applets that will automatically install and publish the required applications. Existing applets are available on the online portal, where you can download them.
To publish an application, open "System settings - RemoteApp and go to RemoteApp machine tab. Here you can see the list of added applets, their status, and the "Deploy" and "Uninstall" buttons for installing and removing applets from the publishing server.
If the applet status is "Success", you can add devices and connect to them using the corresponding applications. For connecting to web interfaces (HTTP), you can use the Chrome or Firefox applets.
