I like the DNS solution, that's deceptively simple...  although it seems 
to have some issues, since ideally people should be able to connect from 
an arbitrary client, or statically configured thin client, and they 
enter their username after connecting to xrdp...

perhaps there is some way to capture the username and parse it between 
the xrdp front end and the actual service hosting the desktop...

Hmm, or, are you suggesting that this mechanism is built in and it 
already looks for those "username.vdi" hostnames when passing the 
connection from xrdp to the backend?

Thanks a lot btw, really good insight.. :)

I thought about doing it with cron, but it seems like you would have to 
determine which X11rdp process had no connected socket before killing 
it... I guess that's not too hard, but if it was built in it would also 
be nice.. :)
