[https://rustdesk.com RustDesk] is a remote desktop remote maintenance software. It can be used with the official server as well as with a self-hosted server (better confidentiality and availability). Open source client and server are included in nixpgks. RustDesk offers an improved server for self-hosting in the rental model (not included in nixpkgs).

= Client =
There are two versions of the client available rustdesk (deprecated) and rustdesk-flutter (more recent). They do not need any changes in the configuration to be used with the official server.

To use the client with a custom server, it is necessary to change in the network preferences (burger menu --> network):<syntaxhighlight>ID-Server: [enter IP or domain name of server]
Relay-Server: [Enter IP or domain name of server]
API-Server: [leave blank]
