Copy or export Remmina remote desktop files to another Ubuntu install

Is there a way to do a bulk copy or export of all my Remmina connections? I have the option to export one by one, but with 50 connections this seems ridiculous. I tried looking for a connections file, or conf file, or something similar but cannot find anything.
sudo find / -name 'remmina' only returns four results:
/usr/share/menu/remmina
/usr/share/doc/remmina
/usr/bin/remmina
/usr/lib/remmina
...but none of them contain any connection files/entries :(
rdp remmina

You mean like your past connections etc? What format would like the it to be in - is this so you can use remmina with the same data elsewhere?

Have you searched your home directory?find /home/USER -iname "*remmina*"

Well, I mean any connections that I've created and saved in the Remmina remote desktop client. The same way you can copy a folder in Windows that contains many .RDP files from one Windows cpu to another, I'm trying to find a way to do that on my Ubuntu 13.10 installations.

The files you need are in ~/.remmina (the hidden .remmina folder in your home directory).
For SSH, the known hosts are stored in ~/.ssh/known_hosts..
All your user settings, preferences, etc for your user are stored in your home directory, as that is the only folder you by default have permissions to access.

This doesn't seem to be the case today. I have Remmina 1.2.0 installed and after creating a session, there is no Remmina folder, hidden or not, in my home folder. The Wiki confirms what you're saying but I found them in~/.local/share/remmina

I am just now coming back to Ubuntu for another check on it's integrity. I installed Skype a year or two ago (on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS) and it broke my entire OS installation; had to reformat and lose a bunch of data so I've been using Windoh's again ever since with RDP (flawlessly, of course). Hopefully either Remmina or a similar product will work better in Ubuntu 16.04 LTS... cause I'm not a fan of Windoh's, I just use it because it lets me be productive.

Didn't know RDP could be got in windows to work flawlessly (probably just graphics drivers for me :) Anyway, the files are probably there now so it complies with the XDG spec. Also skype and other third party proprietary binary packages will work with Ubuntu etc - just if possible DO NOT use the.run,.tar.gz,tar.bz2etc packages provided and try and find a package for your distro (.deb file) that works.

@Wilf, maybe Skype will work. Either way. Just set up a new 16.04 server, finally figured out how to partition/format/mount a new 8 TB drive. Installed webmin, now SSH doesn't let remote connections and webmin itself stopped working. Not using ufw, ssh is running, and listening on 22. Webmin even says running on 10000, and again, no firewall here, but the server responds to nothing. BRB in another 2 years....

Installed remmina on Ubuntu 16.04 and had to reinstall Ubuntu after a while because it wasn't running the best. On my first install the location of all the remmina connection files was /home/gm/.local/share/remmina/ folder.
After I reinstalled my new setup of Ubuntu put all the connection files in the same location /home/gm/.local/share/remmina/ and started up remmina I had no connection. After reading this post I created a new connection and seen a new folder created under /home/gm/.remmina/ with that connection, so I copied all my connections into that folder /home/gm/.remmina/.
sudo cp -r /home/gm/.local/share/remmina/* /home/gm/.remmina/
I am just backing up @Wilf
Hope this helps others!

For users of the flatpak build of Remmina, you can find the connection settings at:

Be careful you don't overwrite and lose existing data in.ssh/and.local/share/keyrings/during restore. A merge may be required.

@Wilf, maybe Skype will work. Either way. Just set up a new 16.04 server, finally figured out how to partition/format/mount a new 8 TB drive. Installed webmin, now SSH doesn't let remote connections and webmin itself stopped working. Not using ufw, ssh is running, and listening on 22. Webmin even says running on 10000, and again, no firewall here, but the server responds to nothing. BRB in another 2 years....

Installed remmina on Ubuntu 16.04 and had to reinstall Ubuntu after a while because it wasn't running the best. On my first install the location of all the remmina connection files was /home/gm/.local/share/remmina/ folder.
After I reinstalled my new setup of Ubuntu put all the connection files in the same location /home/gm/.local/share/remmina/ and started up remmina I had no connection. After reading this post I created a new connection and seen a new folder created under /home/gm/.remmina/ with that connection, so I copied all my connections into that folder /home/gm/.remmina/.
sudo cp -r /home/gm/.local/share/remmina/* /home/gm/.remmina/
I am just backing up @Wilf
Hope this helps others!

Be careful you don't overwrite and lose existing data in.ssh/and.local/share/keyrings/during restore. A merge may be required.

You mean like your past connections etc? What format would like the it to be in - is this so you can use remmina with the same data elsewhere?

Have you searched your home directory?
find /home/USER -iname "*remmina*"– chaos
Feb 14 '14 at 20:08
Well, I mean any connections that I've created and saved in the Remmina remote desktop client. The same way you can copy a folder in Windows that contains many .RDP files from one Windows cpu to another, I'm trying to find a way to do that on my Ubuntu 13.10 installations.

Thanks @chaos! I was a victim of hidden files/folders. I found all the .remmina files in my home folder. Happy camper :D

As a tip for the next time: your
findcommand finds only files or dir named exactly remmina. Tryfind / -iname "*remmina*"or better (faster for these searches for files that do not change a lot)locate -i remmina. HTH. (oops --- missed @chaos comment before --- leave this forlocate)– Rmano
