Summary: On session redirect, username get truncated

Initial Comment:
Project: rDesktop / trunk
Revision: 1563

When a session gets redirected, rDesktop give the authentication credentials to the new session but the username is truncated to the declared size of the array.

Fix it by changing line 977 from sizeof to strlen to:
STRNCPY(g_username, g_redirect_username, strlen(g_username) + 1);

Message:
This does indeed fix the issue of the incorrect user name. However, I still
get an error (Warning: server sent an unexpectedly long string,
truncating), seems to be linked to this issue:
