Do you know if the Raspberry Pi's recommended OS Raspbian comes with a remote desktop (RDP) client as default, or one that I can download to remote desktop into a Windows 7 machine?

Try install TightVNC Server on Raspberry Pi:

sudo apt-get install tightvncserver

Run it every time or add it to startup:

/usr/bin/tightvncserver

You will need a TightVNC Client on your Windows PC o Android Phone.

    I think the OP wants a RDP client for the RPi, not a server. He wants to log in his Windows 7 RPD server.

  • Hi Cerobot, I'm afraid I was looking for an RDP, not VNC client.

  • With VNC, the server is the client.

I tried the Raspberry Pi Thin Client project on a Raspberry Pi 2 on a screen with a resolution of 2560 x 1440 pixels. Was a little bit slow on building the screen but much better than installing it under Raspbian.
