How to build manually

cargo build --release

Three executables will be generated in target/release.

• hbbs - RustDesk ID/Rendezvous server
• hbbr - RustDesk relay server
• rustdesk-utils - RustDesk CLI utilities

You can find updated binaries on the Releases page.

Configuration

hbbs and hbbr can be configured with command-line flags, environment variables, or an .env / config file. Run hbbs --help or hbbr --help to see the available flags.

The most common options:

Option Flag Env var Applies to Purpose Key -k KEY hbbs, hbbr hbbs loads/generates one by default Bind address -b BIND hbbs, hbbr Local IP address to listen on (default: all interfaces; requires 1.1.17+) Port -p PORT hbbs, hbbr Listening port (hbbs 21116, hbbr 21117) Relay servers -r RELAY-SERVERS hbbs Override when the relay uses a different address or a non-standard port Force relay — ALWAYS_USE_RELAY hbbs Y disables direct connections Log level — RUST_LOG hbbs, hbbr e.g. debug (default info)

See docs/environment-variables.md for the full list of variables, the file/flag/env precedence rules, database and relay bandwidth tuning, Docker image variables, and examples.
