Hi=2C

i have been trying to connect rdesktop v1.8.2 to a VRDP server of VirtualBo=
x 4.3 over an encrypted channel.

The connection is established over TLS. In VBox.log i see "VRDP: Using TLS =
connection" and rdesktop says "Connection established using SSL".

The problem is that the rdesktop window is fully black and it accepts no in=
put from the keyboard=2C e.g. the connection to the VRDP server is totally =
frozen.

This effect is in place when the VRDP's "Security/Method" is set either to =
"TLS" or to "Negotiate" - both specify usage of TLS encryption=2C if it is =
supported by both ends. In these cases VDRP reports "Enhanced RDP Security"=
 upon connection establishment.

If i set the VRDP's "Security/Method" to "RDP". The connection to the VRDP =
server is established successfully=2C i can control the remote machine over=
 rdesktop=2C but VRDP reports "Standard RDP Security"=2C which is not somet=
hing targeted by me.

Would someone be able to help me to solev this issue ?

Thanks=2C

Vladimir
