Rustdesk Server Pro License Key Install May 2026

docker logs rustdesk-pro-container-name --tail 50

The Pro server automatically creates a key pair in the ./data directory (id_ed25519.pub). You need this for clients.

View it:

cat ./data/id_ed25519.pub

It looks like: t0B+mfBNnW9bDkP4iX8kL9cZ.... rustdesk server pro license key install

If you are using Docker, you can add the license at launch:

-e "LICENSE=your-license-key-here"

Then restart the container:

docker restart rustdesk-server-pro

Navigate to the RustDesk Server Pro GitHub Releases page. Always use the latest stable release.

# Example for Ubuntu 22.04 x86_64
wget https://github.com/rustdesk/rustdesk-server-pro/releases/download/1.1.9-2/rustdesk-server-pro-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl.zip
unzip rustdesk-server-pro-*.zip
cd amd64

This is the most common deployment. We will use the official rustdesk-server-pro binary. docker logs rustdesk-pro-container-name --tail 50

Place the license file in the working directory (usually where hbbs and hbbr binaries are located).

sudo cp /path/to/your/license.lic /opt/rustdesk/

This is exclusive to Pro.

  • Critical Step: Go to SettingsLicense → Verify the key is recognized.
  • Change the default admin password immediately.
