Debian is a Linux OS, which means that it does not support Microsoft RDP. You'll probably want to find the webpage where Webmin is so you can administrate the server. It's possible to use a shell console to issue commands to the server, but unless you know what you're doing you probably don't want to touch that.

I believe that Debian has a package called 'xrdp' which is an RDP server that might work for you. Give it a try and let us know.

Do you need a Linux VPS or windows. If you are more comfortable with windows why not use that?

Well the thing you trying to do needs purely windows server enabled with remote desktop connection.
You may be be able to achieve this on linux vps.
