Hi, rdesktop is not really special in this case, if you convince 
VirtualBox to send C-A-D to the Linux host, it should reach rdesktop and 
the TS fine. You need to use a special key combination though, I believe 
it's HostKey + Del. See 
http://superuser.com/questions/116946/how-do-i-press-ctrlaltdelete-in-virtualbox.

Regards,
Peter
