Remote control of a Windows desktop from a Linux Webex client?

Hi,

 

Please can someone tell me if it is now possible to remote control a Windows desktop from a Linux Webex client?

I want to host a meeting on my Windows machine and be able to grant control of my desktop to a user who has joined the meeting from a Linux machine. 

I've tried in the past and they can only join the meeting from a browser launched client which allows them to view my desktop but not request control.

I've seen that a new "Webex for Linux" client is available but can't find any details on whether remote control is now possible.

 

Thanks

Since you are going to control a  windows machine, I think there won't be  any problem. Unfortunately I have no linux machine with me now to test the behaviour.

 

The Allow to Control Remotely command is available only if attendees have the Control shared applications, Web browser, ordesktop remotely privilege.  Attendee privileges can be set when schedule your meeting, or within a meeting from the Participant > Assign Privileges menu.

 

Refer Below link for  how to do Remotely Control.
