Looks like you haven't supplied a username or have left it empty but it's
still passing up the -u switch which should be followed by the username.
I'd say that's a bug, though I don't have a gutsy system to hand to look
at.

If I run:
        rdesktop -u  -a 15 -f <hostname>
the connection fails.

Suggestions:

1. If you have a username you can pass, do.

2. If you don't want to pass a username, modify
   /opt/ltsp/i386//usr/lib/ltsp/screen.d/rdesktop and remove the 
   "-u $USERNAME" (or whatever it says), rebuild the image and reboot the
   thin client.

Better still, submit a patch to do something like

        USERSTRING=""
        if [ ! -z $USERNAME ] 
        then
                USERSTRING="-u $USERNAME"
        fi

        /usr/bin/xinit /usr/bin/rdesktop $USERSTRING  -a 15 -f 212.45.52.101 -- 
:6.0 tty7
