RDP Remote Access with XRDP

Note: this currently only works with RHEL8.

The basic configuration in Hiera is:

xrdp::enable: true

This allows by default to create new virtual desktop sessions or to connect to a local desktop session which is shared over VNC using port 5900.

Some more details could be ajusted when needed:

To disallow access to a shared desktop do

xrdp::shared_desktop::enable: false

whereas to disallow virtual desktop sessions there is

xrdp::virtual_desktop::enable: false

Also you may choose the backend for the virtual sessions, either libxup.so (default) or libvnc.so:

xrdp::virtual_desktop::backend: 'libvnc.so'
