Description jamundso 2008-02-19 18:19:27 UTC

Version:           kdenetwork-3.5.8-9.fc8 (using KDE 3.5.8)
Installed from:    Fedora RPMs
OS:                Linux

Previously, this was fine:
krdc --config $HOME/.krdc-full rdp:/w.x.y.z
but now invokes rdesktop thusly:
rdesktop -g 1280x1024 -k en-us -p XXXXXXX -X 0x2e0002e -a 24 w.x.y.z:3389
where I have only masked "w.x.y.z".
Whereas,
rdesktop -g 1280x1024 -k en-us -a 24 w.x.y.z:3389
works perfectly.

What's wrong with this command? -p tells rdesktop the password and -X embeds the rdesktop window in the KRDC one.

Naturally, the XXXXXXX is for security purposes.
The problem is the Remote Desktop Connection window hangs for ever at "Establishing connection...".

Comment 4 Urs Wolfer 2008-02-20 22:52:43 UTC

Ok, I think this is a known problem with embeding the rdesktop window. If this is the case, this has been fixed in the KDE 4 version of KRDC. Please try it there as soon as you have the possibilty to, and reopen this report again if it would be still valid.
