Problems with rdesktop
Hi, I'm running rdesktop v1.3.0 on my Debian Sarge box. When I try to connect to a Windows XP system, this works fine with rdesktop WINPC. However, when I specify the color depth with rdesktop -a 16 WINPC, the connection is not established but I get the rdesktop usage message. What is wrong? Why is -a X not accepted even though it is explicitly mentioned in the man pages? Chris -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I suspect the problem may be on the server end of things, but I'm unsure how you'd configure that. -- Kent West Westing Peacefully http://kentwest.blogspot.com -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

The man page says: Note that the colour depth may also be limited by the server configuration. I suspect the problem may be on the server end of things, but I'm unsure how you'd configure that. What I forgot to mention. On another machine running Solaris, I can run rdesktop with -a without any problems. So the server seems not to be the problem. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
