Remmina is a remote desktop software client for Linux-based computer operating systems. It supports the RDP, VNC, NX, XDMCP and SSH protocols.[1][2]

Remmina is in the package repositories for Debian versions 6 (Squeeze) and later and for Ubuntu versions since 10.04 (Lucid Lynx).[3][4] As of 11.04 (Natty Narwhal), it replaced tsclient as Ubuntu's default remote desktop client.[5][6]

Remmina, written in C, is a front-end of FreeRDP, a fork of rdesktop aiming at modularizing the code, addressing various issues, and implementing new features.

Remmina is available in three different packages; GTK+ application, GNOME application and the xfce panel plug-in.[7]
