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...".
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.
