Can I RDP to MacBook?

macOS does not support RDP out of the box. There does not seem to be a canonical best solution for getting it working, but you can see OS X RDP server application.

VNC is supported by macOS. Go to System PreferencesSharingScreen SharingComputer Settings and enable VNC viewers may control screen with password.

Here are windows VNC clients that work well with Mac and a question on setting up the mac sharing:

  • Is there a Windows remote desktop client compatible with Lion's virtual display feature?
  • Remote Management vs. Screen Sharing?

Teamviewer is a much easier and simpler solution - https://www.teamviewer.com/en/download/mac/


NuoRDS is the best RDS server solution I've found for Mac OSX. I've run it on Mac Minis and a Macbook Air, using Reminna on Linux to control the Macs. Works flawlessly and is constantly updated as new OS versions are released. Affordable and I'd definitely recommend you try it.
