for Linux will provide Linux desktop and thin client terminal users
with standard RDP-based access to Microsoft Windows applications
via Windows Server 2003 Terminal Services. In addition, the
Tarantella RDP Client for Linux also functions as a full client to
Tarantella Secure Global Desktop Terminal Services Edition software

“Tarantella has been delivering innovative enterprise software
to the Linux community for over 5 years,” said Tarantella’s Chief

perfect bridge for the Linux desktop user to Microsoft Windows
applications. Previously, users had to rely on RDP clients that
were either unsupported or reverse-engineered. The Tarantella RDP
Client for Linux gives enterprise users the confidence of knowing
their access to mission-critical Microsoft applications is backed
by a commercially supported client that is fully compliant with the
RDP specification licensed from Microsoft.”
