title: Web Based RDP Client
body: <p>Can I permit RDP based connections from a website using PHP/JS/etc? I've read that RDP session files can be placed on the web server but would prefer to implement it via code. I am looking for the best way to offer a centralized management of windows machines and allow direct RDP connections.</p>

  <p>This looks like it could potentially work, although it requires IIS as the web-server and requires a role to be installed on all remote machines. If possible, I would like to find a solution permitting this to work under a Nix based web-server and without any need for modifications on the remote servers.</p>
