Access your apps from anywhere.

It provides each user with a customized view of all available resources. It even gives you control over your Thincast Workstation virtual machines by allowing you to start, pause and stop them remotely.

The minimum memory required on the host system is 64 MB, but 128 MB and above is recommended. Thincast RD Webaccess needs at least 32 MB of available disk space for the application.
All traffic between RD WebServices and the client is done using HTTPS SSL. the default server port for our service is 443. Sometimes it is necessary to change this, such as when you are already runing another service on this port (e.g ISS Webserver).
Our Thincast Remote Desktop Client is available for Linux, macOS and Windows. On your client you simply need to install this application and subscribe to the user's application feed once. A detailed step-by-step guide can be found here.
RD WebAccess licenses are one-time-payment and will never expire.
How does the licensing work?
For "Basic" and "Standard," the Named Users MUST be individually pre-selected and given access (maximum of 10 or 25). Whitelisting is mandatory here! With "Pro" this is optional, but you can still specify and whitelist users and groups for access.
You can use RD WebAccess also without RD Gateway. This depends on your requirements, RD Gateway does add e.g. extended access control policies allow fine-grained control on the user level or protects your infrastructure against RDP brute-force or similar attacks since the RDP ports of the company servers are no longer exposed on the internet.
Initial support for Linux 64-Bit has been added with Version 1.0.518 - Further information can be found in the documentation.
After installing the software, open the RD WebServices Manager and connect to the machine where RD WebServices is running. The user account must be a member of the local Administrator group.
For further information, please consult the user manual.
