About the Anyware Client SDK for Linux

The Client SDK for Linux does not ship with its own session client binary; it uses the standard Anyware Client for Linux binary instead. Therefore, you must first download and install the Anyware client application, and then invoke it from the SDK.

The Anyware Client for Linux now supports USB webcams when connecting to a Anyware Agent for Windows. USB webcams can now be used while in the remote desktop, including with applications such as Microsoft Teams or Zoom.
