xrdp listening over udp port
xrdp dose not support listening over udp port 3389 please add udp as tcp to get faster thanks
@mhmh55516 unfortunately supporting UDP for RDP is not that simple as there's some other protocols over UDP, and only channels benefit from the UDP transport.
It would be nice to implement UDP support however there's few benefits than effort so far. There is still some room to get TCP faster. UDP is not the only solution to get xrdp faster.
well, on NON low latency lines (remote desktop/access over VPN/WAN), a UDP transport could make a significant difference. especially when used for interactive work (CAD-design).

@nikiwaibel that doesn't change the fact that implementing UDP transport is a giant effort (actually doing it in FreeRDP, and on it since some months)
@hardening sure. i just wanted to have me on Cc of this issue :+1:
i do understand your point 100%. xpra just wiped the UDP transport: https://github.com/Xpra-org/xpra/commit/2022238ababa40382d2b8d6b019fb2d757ec9955 :-(
and :100: to the power of :100: kudos for your UDP-effort on FreeRDP! it makes sense to have an linux-udp-rdp-client first :-)
That also doesn't change the fact that there is still some room to get TCP faster. xrdp doesn't support much more effective compressions like progressive RFX or H.264/AVC 444. Even if UDP is implemented, it would be slow without effective compressions.
