Hi,

well, I assume you're trying to assist a windows user?

you can use the remote assistance files with xfreerdp user.msrcIncident /assistance:password

Hi,
it should be possible to connect to an existing Terminal Service
session (e.g. to help or assist the user already connected) - but I
can't seem to do this from xfreerdp (3.24.2) - I end up either creating
a new session or disconnecting the user I want to connect to (and
taking over their session).

I'm a bit confused about this, I haven't found much documentation on it
  - can anyone advise on how to connect to and share an existing session?
Eg:
Are there any special Freerdp switches needed for this?
Do I need to connect using the same account as the existing session, or
  can it be a different one?
Do I need to have any special privileges on Terminal Services server
  side, or does the server need to be configured in any specific way?
Does it depend on the version of the Windows server/Windows station OS?
Or perhaps on the type or version of Terminal Services on the RDP
  server?
