Hello!, Well, with VNC I was planning to use a 1:1 mapping between users and VMs (around 20), but with XRDP it seems I can reduce the VM count and have 4 machines with 5 users. That would reduce the OS maintenance overhead like patching, or Firefox bookmarks maintenance (Puppet in the ToDo list, but won't be ready soon).
I disabled the default entries which include VNC, and just kept the xorg one. No audio out of the box. Regarding performance, native RDP had nice upgrades in the latest versions like UDP support and some kind of out of the box acceleration. I don't expect multimedia to be center of the usecase, but a quick YouTube test makes it clear XRDP is not there yet (very choppy experience).
