I've found reports of this bug back as far as 2005. I affects me too on 8.04 and 8.10.
It appears that if rdesktop generates any output or perhaps exit code at all, then tsclient treats that a valid reason to reconnect. So, for example, if you request 24-bit colour and the remote computer only supports 16-bit, rdesktop outputs a warning (no problem). Later however, when rdesktop exits because you deliberately closed it, tsclient uses the earlier warning about colour depth to trigger an automatic reconnect. Very frustrating. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=86131 http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3659984 The reconnect behaviour needs to be removed or disabled until it gets smarter about checking the rdesktop messages.
