Rdesktop will *only* work under Mac OS X (on the Mac), but it requires that you install Xdarwin (an X-Windows Server/Client; http://www.xdarwin.org/) first. I highly recommend using Fink (http://fink.sourceforge.net/) to do the installation of any Unix distributions, Rdesktop included. Fink will allow you to simply select the packages and then it will download and compile for you. Getting rdesktop is a little tricky though, because it is listed as "unstable". Make sure read the Fink FAQ first. Additionally, you must have the developer tools installed to do the compile. There is not a binary download available for Fink that I know of.
It is important to note that you have to go through the X-Windows environment to do this, and it probably isn't quite ready for the casual user yet. However, once you get past the X-Windows interface, Rdesktop works beautifully. I use it in combination with the Unix Cisco VPN client with no problems.
