Apps :: is there a server for rdesktop which DSL wouldrun?

I have exactly same problems.

I have no luck with xrdp:

1. the debian package installs well and creat a xrdp repository in /ramdisk/user;
2. I try to run the xrdp file as root in a shell (/ramdisk/user/xrdp/xrdp) but it says "error while loading shared library libxrdp.so;
3. libxrdp.so is in the same repository (/ramdisk/usr/xrdp/); it seems that the path of libxrdp.so is not set correctly; but I don't know where to find the script to modify (*.bin???);
4. after googeling, I found that most users of xrdp have it in /user/local/; so I move the xrdp repository to /ramdsik/user/local/; no change;
5. when I try to edit libxrdp.so, it says "permission denied; I have found no help at the moment.

Sum up: it seems to work, but I have to know how to set the path for the libraries (not only for the rdp protocol, but for the other too, as you can use then vnc client in order to access the xrdp server)

VNC plugin: the java plugin for firefox seems to work fine either for firefox or ie (in win) or for firefox only (in dsl); but accessing the vnc server with my browsers seems to hang somewhere, too.

xrdp works.... but I have another problem.

In order to make it work, I simply use grand-mother rough methodology: just move the libraries to

/ramdisk/user/lib

and that's it.

Open a shell as root and type

/ramdisk/usr/(where your xrdp repository is/xrdp

The rdp server starts and numbered the process (= make a xrdp.pid file in ramdisk/var/run/).

The problem: when testing the server (with rdesktop localhost in a shell), I have a window which briefly pops up, and then shuts down. In the shell appears the following:

X Error: BadMatch
Request Major Code 93 ()
Error Serial §571
Current Serial §800

No idea what it is, but I maybe have to try it from home with rdesktop again.

You should try TightVNC

It does both server/client comms and JAVA webbrowser support...it is somewhat lighter than those other VNC servers...oh and it runs on both windows and linux!
