First, sorry to have misspelled your name Mikael.

Have you done any configuration changes to make it work? Either in the rdesktop client or in Windows 2008?

Only two things I can remember that were related to it:

1) Right-click My Computer -> Remote Settings -> Remote Tab ->
Remote Desktop Frame -> Select Option 'Allow connections from
computer running any version of Remote Desktop ( less secure ). Also
did this on Windows Server 2008 RC1.

2) On Windows Server 2008, to get Seemless RDP a different approach is
needed. It seem that on Windows Server 2003, applications could be run
unless if they were denied access to. On Server 2008 it seems that you
need to specific state the accesses for all programs.

Hi Michael,

Rdesktop doesn’t support RDC6 afaik. You need to use -4 to switch to
RDC4 protocol, the default is RDC5 however that fails if you try to
connect to a Windows 2008 / Windows Vista machine. If you’ve managed
to get it working from Linux without using the -4 switch, I’d love to
know how so I can implement it as well.

It works for me with -5 with both Windows Vista Business and Windows
Server 2008 RC1 as I stated on this list a few weeks ago. I've done
nothing special to get it to work... I even got Seemless RDP to work...
What do you need to know?

I was surprised to see a port of rdesktop to Windows. I've tried this
to a few W2K3 boxes & it works fine.
However, when I tried connecting to a W2K8 box, now using RDC6, I'm
getting repeated errors...
C:\rdesktop4win>rdesktop w2k8box
ERROR: modulus len 0x108
ERROR: send: No error
.
.

rdesktop from Linux to W2K8 works fine, so prehaps it's a Cygwin DLL
issue? here's what I'm using...
04/10/2006 12:18 1,151,538 cygcrypto-0.9.7.dll
31/01/2007 10:33 1,873,811 cygwin1.dll
01/12/2004 15:02 802,656 rdesktop.exe

Any idea's? Also, Are you aware of any size limitations on rdesktop
being used with large screens.
e.g. I'm trying with 2x30" screens. Each screen is 2560x1600, so the
total resolution with each screen in portrait is 3200x2560

This post...
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=E1ISZ3Q-0003R8-Bg%40sc8-sf-web24.sourceforge.net
...suggests that it's a server side limitation. Is that still the case?
