A remote desktop can be shared with a number of clients. A proxy client can be employed to establish a remote desktop connection with a server for the purpose of accessing a remote desktop. The proxy client can receive desktop display data pertaining to the remote desktop and forward it to a remote desktop client on one or more clients to cause the remote desktop to be displayed on each of the clients. When users interact with the remote desktop displayed on the clients, the remote desktop client can send desktop input data to the proxy client. The proxy client can then forward this desktop input data to the server over the remote desktop connection. The proxy client may selectively block desktop input data received from a client that is not currently authorized to provide input to the remote desktop.
