Description

This is an unofficial community package of the open-source RustDesk Server (OSS). It is not affiliated with or supported by RustDesk.

RustDesk is an open-source remote desktop application. Running your own server keeps device registration and relayed sessions on infrastructure you control instead of the public RustDesk servers.

What runs

  • hbbs: ID/rendezvous server (device registration, NAT type test, hole punching)
  • hbbr: relay server, used when a direct peer-to-peer connection is not possible

Both are the official, checksum-verified upstream release binaries, started the same way as upstream's container image.

Cloudron integration

  • The client settings (ID server, key, ready-to-import config string) are shown on the admin page behind Cloudron login, and on a public guest page at /setup for people who need to connect
  • TCP 21115-21117 and UDP 21116 are configured in the app's Location settings
  • WebSocket endpoints /ws/id and /ws/relay are served over HTTPS on the app domain for the web client and WebSocket-enabled clients, using upstream's documented reverse-proxy layout
  • Key pair, device database and relay blocklists live in /app/data and are included in Cloudron backups
  • Upstream environment variables (ALWAYS_USE_RELAY, ENCRYPTED_ONLY, RELAY, KEY_PUB/KEY_PRIV, relay bandwidth limits, RUST_LOG, ...) work as documented

RustDesk Server OSS has no web console, user accounts, address book or API server. Those are RustDesk Server Pro features.

Recent Changes

  • Public guest page at /setup with ID server, public key, importable config string and download links, for meeting guests and other clients (e.g. MiroTalk SFU REMOTE_CONTROL_DOWNLOAD_URL).

  • Admin page moved to /admin and stays behind Cloudron login; / redirects there.
