From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Hello,

Trying to use my linux partition to remote into windows PCs and I am struggling to get ninja remote software to work with even a browser running through wine. Has anyone used this software before and have a solution?

Funny I just spend a few hours working on this on my workstation. Tested in VM first before deploying out to my main machine. but here are rough steps:

You have to use wine and the browser extension "User-Agent Switcher and Manager" I would say first install the browser extension then log into your RMM agent. The button to remote will appear but won't work. Click the remote in button and Download the 32bit agent from the pop up Then run wine not sudo on that exe file. Once installed you need to make a desktop entry [nano ~/.local/share/applications/ninja-remote.desktop]

Change the username and verify the path is correct by checking your wine folder#####

#Paste this with the correct path and username [Desktop Entry] Name=NinjaOne Remote Exec=bash -c 'wine "/home//.wine/drive_c/users//AppData/Roaming/NinjaRemote/ncplayer.exe" "%u"' Type=Application Terminal=false MimeType=x-scheme-handler/ninjarmm;

Second to last Register the desktop Entry: run: xdg-desktop-menu install ~/.local/share/applications/ninja-remote.desktop run: xdg-mime default ninja-remote.desktop x-scheme-handler/ninjarmm

Lastly, Paste this in your firefox extension (The we used to trick sites into thinking we are windows) Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/91.0.4472.124 Safari/537.36

Let me know how it goes. Cheers!
