Did a quick test. Modify rdp.c like this:

--- rdp.c	(revision 1630)
+++ rdp.c	(arbetskopia)
@@ -1451,6 +1451,7 @@
  		case RDP_DATA_PDU_LOGON:
  			DEBUG(("Received Logon PDU\n"));
  			/* User logged on */
+			exit(0);
  			process_pdu_logon(s);
  			break;

Then, use a shell script like this:

#!/bin/sh
if timeout 20 ./rdesktop "$@"; then
     echo Successfully logged on
else
     echo Logon failed
fi

Peter

All of the data generated in your IT infrastructure is seriously valuable.
Why? It contains a definitive record of application performance, security 
threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this data and makes 
sense of it. IT sense. And common sense.
