The problem is likely rdesktop. Your windows2000 server is using RDPv5 which is not understood by rdesktop-1.2. I had to build the latest version of rdesktop to get it to work cleanly with my newer windows terminal servers. I also had to mess with library links to get the rdesktop binary to run. This involved using ln to create library names for the versions that rdesktop-1.3 uses. An alternative is to build rdesktop static. > _____________________________ Steve Monett - Sr. Staff Engineer Information Systems - Infrastructure Services > Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials Free Linux tutorial presented by Daniel Robbins, President and CEO of GenToo technologies.
