Description mazesloup 2013-10-20 06:35:43 UTC

With version 4:4.11.2-0ubuntu1 of KRdc on KUbuntu 13.10, the additionnal arguments aren't correctly passed.

Command line from Krdc :

xfreerdp -g 1280x1024 -k 0x0000040C -d afitse -u xxx -p ******** -D -X 79692398 -a 16 --plugin rdpdr --data disk media /media -- -x l --plugin rdpdr --data printer -- --ignore-certificate --plugin cliprdr -t xxx xxx

The right command should be :

xfreerdp -g 1280x1024 -k 0x0000040C -d afitse -u xxx -p ******** -D -X 79692398 -a 16 --plugin rdpdr --data disk media /media --data printer -- -x l --ignore-certificate --plugin cliprdr -t xxx xxx

I can't find the good way to pass the argument with Krdc since it's always added after -x I

It sounds strange to me that the order of this params matter... I can move the block which adds additional params some lines up, but I have no idea if it breaks other params which could be added by some users. Or do you think that would work for everything?

Hi, it's not really the order, it's more that it seems when we use twice "--plugin rdpdr" only the first is used by xfreerdp.
So if a take the KRdc command line and add "--data printer" just after "--plugin rdpdr --data disk media /media" and before "--" it's working.

Comment 3 Urs Wolfer 2013-10-27 16:59:16 UTC

The parameter "--plugin rdpdr" is added only once by KRDC - you have added the second one. Does "--data printer" only work if it is added right after the --plugin rdpdr"? In that case, it would be really hard to fix in KRDC, since any other parameter could be added at another position...

Or do you know if I could move any "additional user entered parameter" before "-- -x l"? I could change that.

I am also affected. It works if you make the media folder empty but then I cant access the local disks :(

Comment 5 Urs Wolfer 2014-01-15 20:09:09 UTC

@Thomas: Can you please check the command which KRDC executes? Is "--plugin rdpdr" also added twice in your case?

Comment 6 Eitzenberger Thomas 2014-01-17 07:16:10 UTC

Sorry for the spoiler but I seem to be unable to get the debug output created.... Been with kdebugdialog but no change in output and nothing in xsession....

Comment 7 Urs Wolfer 2014-01-17 07:22:09 UTC

@Thomas: You need to activate KRDC in kdebugtool. Then you need to run KRDC from a terminal.

Comment 8 Urs Wolfer 2014-03-30 11:13:18 UTC

@Eitzenberger Thomas:  Please see my comment above. Your feedback would probably help fixing this issue.

Comment 9 Eitzenberger Thomas 2014-03-30 12:08:08 UTC

Sorry forgot this issue as Remmina worked out of the box... Will try to supply you data upcoming week

Thomas, any update?

Comment 11 Christoph Feck 2014-05-08 22:19:52 UTC

To further investigate this issue, KDE developers need the information requested in comment #5. If you can provide it, or need help with finding that information, please add a comment.

No response, changing status. If you have more information, please add a comment.
