Hi all,

I'm currently testing xrdp to work with rdesktop for a project at a university. 
Unfortunately I can't change the rdesktop parameters because they are hard 
coded in the Main application.
We want to flip over from a windows desktop to a linux environment without 
support from the vendor, but I think we are not far away to connect to xrdp 
instead of WinXP desktops.

Connecting to xrdp using rdesktop or mstsc works fine but this given command 
line doesn't work and I only see a black screen.
Seems that xrdp interprets the password parameter wrong and gets in trouble 
then.

Original commandline :
rdesktop -z -K -q 1024x768  -X 25166021 -u Admin -p PASSWORD -d HOMELAB -a 16 
-r sound:local 192.168.178.237:3389

Black screen with not content:
rdesktop -z -K -q 1024x768  -u Admin -p PASSWORD -d HOMELAB -a 16 -r 
sound:local 192.168.178.237:3389

I figured out that rdesktop works fine without the -p PASSWORD parameter:
 rdesktop -z -K -q 1024x768 -u Admin -d HOMELAB -a 16 -r sound:local 
192.168.178.237:3389


used Versions:
xrdp xrdp-0.5.0~20100303cvs
rdesktop 1.6.0-3ubuntu2

xrdp started on the server console not using daemon mode.

Any ideas ? 

Thank you very much
Jens
