# Connect with RDP
***
Click on the Start Menu and search for Remote Desktop. Click on **Remote Desktop Connection** to open the program.
A dialog box will open where you enter the server's IP address. Once you have entered the IP address, click **Connect**.
A dialog box will open where you enter your username and password. This is one of the usernames you created when setting up the server. Click **OK** to log in.
If this is your first time connecting to this virtual server, you will see a warning about the certificate. The name on the certificate should match the hostname you assigned to the server. If it does, click **Yes** to connect and trust the certificate.
