We have a Server running ESXI and a bunch of cloned Windows 10 VMs. To connect to each of the VMs we are using standard RDP. This is to make it easy and familiar to our students.
I would like to be able to monitor all the VMs from a central management PC (preferably Linux Debian) and ensure everything is running ok (using custom software on the machines and expecting bugs).
To do this i am looking for some Classroom Desktop Monitoring software, however it needs to be able to monitor a RDP connection rather than a physical display (if you are fimiliar with ESXI you can see a capture of the desktop from there which only shows the loging screen when using RDP)

Has anyone come across any software like this before ? I would prefer free or free trial but this is for a company so there is a buget in place to get this sorted.
