rustdesk config

Hello everyone,

I see that the RustDesk tool is generating interest.
We've been using it on-premises for a while now. Here's

a small contribution regarding client configuration.

We install the RustDesk client as a service in the usual way.

For configuration, we modify the file C:\Windows\ServiceProfiles\LocalService\AppData\Roaming\RustDesk\config\RustDesk2.toml.
After modification, the service must be restarted.
The toml file is similar to editing an INI file.
This can be done either in a WAPT configuration package or via GPO.

Some parameters are interesting:
[options]
custom-rendezvous-server => specifies the RustDesk server;
whitelist => list of IPs authorized for remote access;
key => the RustDesk server key;
approve-mode => allows you to specify whether the user should accept the connection or not.

Hoping this will be useful to some.
