I meant that as of GS 46 we should be able to login via RDP even if no
gnome shell session is opened (or so I understood). I believe the
system daemon is required for that.
I am also interested in being able to login to a locked gnome shell
session, which as far as I understand is possible with gnome shell 46.

So I did not mean mixinf gnome-shell/gnome-remote-desktop version. My
interest was into connection via RDP to a not unlocked or already
opened remote Gnome Shell.

As of now I us the "Allow Locked Remote Desktop" extension and gdm3
autologin on the remote gnome shell user session.
I would like to get rid of these hacks (especially since I have to set
an empty password on my gnome keyring for such a setup).

Cheers,
