In this project, we will programming Raspberry Pi that could be control remotely via Secure Shell (SSH) from any Computer.

Remote Desktop are useful to communicate between Raspberry PI and another Device remotely through SSH. SSH provides a secure channel over an unsecured network in a client-server architecture to send any information, render data, any other essential process.

Step 1: Raspberry Pi Installation

Open Terminal in Raspberry Pi, enable SSH (Secure Shell), install xrdp, edit your raspberry's ip to static and you're good to go.

raspi-config

Select option 8 (Advance Option), option A4(SSH), Enable, and OK

sudo apt-get install xrdp
sudo nano /etc/network/interfaces

Replace "iface eth0 inet dhcp" with :

iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.1.20
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.1.1

Step 2: Windows Installation

Find "remote desktop connection" program on Windows,

Enter raspberry pi IP,

Enter raspberry pi username and pass,

Enjoy configure your Raspberry Pi remotely !
