How do you get the gateway address?
Nothing to do with "RD Web Access". You will only receive a complete rdp-Desktop...
You can also remotely access computers from MAC OS X using tools like R-HUB remote support servers. It is an on premise solution which works on all platforms viz Windows, MAC, Android, iOS etc.
