The syntax is finicky. Apparently the hostname must come last, any remaining parameters are not parsed. Have you tried the example below? This works successfully for me in a very similar environment.
$ xfreerdp -u username hostname.domain.tld -----Original Message----- From: Marcin Zajączkowski [mailto:msz...@wp.pl] Sent: Sunday, May 06, 2012 2:08 PM To: freerdp-devel@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [Freerdp-devel] Authentication failure with Win2008 with current security updates (worked some time ago) Hi, A few months ago I was able to connect to Windows 2008 machine with FreeRDP 1.0.1. Recently I've tried again and got: > $ xfreerdp somehost -d mydomain -u username connected to somehost:3389 > Password: > SSL_read: Failure in SSL library (protocol error?) Authentication > failure, check credentials. > If credentials are valid, the NTLMSSP implementation may be to blame. I'm not an administrator of that system. I know the system is "Win2008 r2 64bit sp1" and there were installed some security fix related to rdp in the meantime (which could be a reason?). I tried with --no-nla, --ntlm, --sec (rdp, tls or nla) - with no result. I have found some reports with the same error message, but none of the mentioned solutions helped. Is it a know problem with current Windows 2008? I can provide some more detailed information if needed.
