Tried both: s...@pm2v40:~$ xrdp -version Unknown Parameter xrdp -h for help OK, thanks for the advice. I will grab the curent git version, and compile it. Are there instructions for using git to grab the source tarball? I have never ahd to do that before. RE: using preferibily vnc as backend. Of I do that, I assume that the users will need to insall a VNC viewer on thier PC's? While this is not totaly unacaeptable, it does sort of miss my goal of letting users access this machine without having to install any software on thier PC's.
