  • An Active Duo account tied to your NetID. (For Duo enabled applications only)
  • If you are accessing RDS from off campus, you will need to have a VPN connection. 

Using Remote Desktop Services (RDS)

To access applications via RDS, open a web browser and go to https://rds.dartmouth.edu/.

Note: The first time you connect to the RDS website, you will be prompted to install an Active X plug-in. Choose Allow.

In the User name field, enter Kiewit\<your netid>. In the Password field, enter the password you use with your NETID.

  • Be sure to use a backslash  \  in the user name field Kiewit\<your netid>

Once you log in, you will see a collection of applications. You will only see the applications you have permission to.

Applications with "Duo" in the name will require Duo for authentication. Applications that do not have Duo in the name do NOT require Duo. See https://services.dartmouth.edu/TDClient/KB/ArticleDet?ID=64939 for more information about Duo.

Single click an application icon to start it.

Click Connect. If prompted, enter your password.

Common Issues

Once I log into RDS, I don't see the application I need.

It may be that you have not been granted access to that application via RDS. Contact your department's IT support group for assistance.
