Install Remote Desktop (xRDP) for Ubuntu Server 18.04

Step 1 – Install xRDP:

sudo apt update
sudo apt install xrdp

Step 2 – Install XFCE4

sudo apt install xfce4
sudo apt-get install xfce4-terminal tango-icon-theme

Step 3 - Configure

echo xfce4-session > ~/.xsession

Step 4 - Restart xRDP

sudo service xrdp restart

Step 5 - Testing

On Windows PC, use mstsc to connect to the ubuntu server

sudo service xrdp restart 命令无法执行，提示如下：
Failed to restart xrdp.service: Unit xrdp.service not found.

As zero-cao said, use 'sudo systemctl start xrdp' on Ubuntu 18.04 instead will work.

Thanks!

apt-get install xrdp
apt-get install xorgxrdp
adduser xrdp ssl-cert
apt-get install xfce4 xfce4terminal

these for headless debian based linux. I used them on Openmediavault, It worked.
