Bug#879177: closed by "Matteo F. Vescovi" <mfv at debian.org> (Re: Bug#879177: Remmina: Not connecting to Windows 7 using RDP connection)

Hi Matteo -


Thanks for looking into this, yes it seems that Windows is still a bit 
behind the times when it comes to dealing with TLS 1.2 and onwards.  It 
appears that disabling TLS 1.0 will break RDP on any Windows 7 system, 
but I have yet to try the patch they recommend.


However ... from the libssl1.1  ver 1.1.0f-5 changelog.Debian.gz

   [ Kurt Roeckx ]
   * Disable TLS 1.0 and 1.1, leaving 1.2 as the only supported SSL/TLS
     version. This will likely break things, but the hope is that by
     the release of Buster everything will speak at least TLS 1.2. This 
will be
     reconsidered before the Buster release.


So it seems that we are still not sure what will actually happen in 1 to 
2 yrs when Buster becomes Debian 10. Maybe Windows 12.25 will get it 
right by then :)
