I followed the guide at http://scarygliders.net/2011/11/17/x11rdp-ubuntu-11-10-gnome-3-xrdp-customization-new-hotness/ to install X11RDP under Ubuntu 12.04.
Having connected, entering my username and password to the sesman-X11rdp dialogue, I get the following text: connecting to sesman ip 127.0.0.1 port 3350 sesman connect ok sending login info to session manager, please wait... xrdp_mm_process_login_response: login successful for display started connecting connecting... connect error connecting... connect error connecting... connect error connecting... connect error connection problem, giving up some problem Following another post I saw following the "some problem" message (http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-server-73/xrdp-authenticates-but-does-not-load-x-server-rdp-592138/#post2979988), I ran the following in a shell: X11rdp :56 Which gave me this: X11rdp, an X server for xrdp Version 0.5.0 Copyright (C) 2005-2008 Jay Sorg See http://xrdp.sf.net for information on xrdp.

I suspect this is valid behaviour, as your X clients would probably start writing to that X server then. Next, I restarted /etc/init.d/xrdp and got this: spriggsj@home:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/xrdp restart * Stopping RDP Session manager ...done. * Starting Remote Desktop Protocol server process 32146 started ok starting sesman... sesman config: ListenAddress: 127.0.0.1 ListenPort: 3350 EnableUserWindowManager: 1 UserWindowManager: startwm.sh DefaultWindowManager: startwm.sh AuthFilePath: disabled Xvnc parameters: Parameter 00 -bs Parameter 01 -ac Parameter 02 -nolisten Parameter 03 tcp Parameter 04 -localhost Parameter 05 -dpi Parameter 06 96 X11rdp parameters: Parameter 00 -bs Parameter 01 -ac Parameter 02 -nolisten Parameter 03 tcp Parameter 04 -uds logging configuration: LogFile: /var/log/xrdp-sesman.log LogLevel: 4 EnableSyslog: 0 SyslogLevel: 4 security configuration: AllowRootLogin: 1 MaxLoginRetry: 4 No TSUsersGroup defined No TSAdminsGroup defined session configuration: MaxSessions: 10 X11DisplayOffset: 10 KillDisconnected: 0 IdleTimeLimit: 0 DisconnectedTimeLimit: 0 [20120321-21:16:12] [WARN ] [init:45] libscp initialized ...done.

I realise Ubuntu 12.04 isn't out of beta yet, but I'd really like to give this a go, if anyone can make any suggestions?
