Title: usb over Ethernet
Post by: SpencerFrit78 on September 24, 2018, 10:40:06 am

Hello! faced with such a problem. I started using the Smart card reader in a thin client, but on a standard software it reads with a bug. If I use the software
Is there any solution to forward USB Hard Disk Reader for thin clients (FreeRDP) to terminal server and access devices?

I don't know the answer but a search on:

SpencerFrit78, Hello! With an external device, you will not get a good result, as they will not take a long distance. You need software like USB Network Gate (https://www.usb-over-network.org/). He will throw your device completely and correctly. On their website, you can see the specification completely. There are other analogs of software, you can compare with your requirements which one is better for you. Have fun!=)
