It's not a matter of an RFE, it is a matter of licensing the RDP client
for a specific platform. This is a Sun Ray Software product, the
renegotiation and fees that would need to be paid to MS doesn't make
financial sense for the Sun Ray group to absorb. Especially if you
consider many users would be running it on non-sun hardware with (free)
Solaris x86. Unless of course you could tie it to SUNW hardware (easier
probably for SPARC).
If you like rdesktop, feel free to use it. I happen to love it and
think it's a great example of what open source projects can do.

If it goes through X, it would seem that it wouldn't be too hard to
make a version that would run on Solaris workstations, that were not
Sunrays (ie. an rdesktop replacement). Perhaps I should put in an RFE.
