I am trying to run rdesktop recursively at startup with DSL.  I have managed to finally get that it to run once at startup by execing it in the .xinitrc .  Now there are two issues,

One:  When it does startup at boot the ASCd box shows up on the upper lefthand corner of the screen and will not go away.

Two:  When rdesktop exits it exits back to prompt and just sits there.  In order for it to come back I have to type xinit and it starts back up again.

this is how my scripts look like:

(.xinitrc)

fi
exec /etc/init.d/nt
fluxbox


(nt)

while [ true ]
do
 exec /usr/X11R6/bin/xinit /etc/init.d/nt_con -bpp 8 :0
done

(nt_con)

/usr/X11R6/bin/xsetroot -solid black
exec /usr/bin/rdesktop -f (ip here) -a 16



I've tried the inittab route with no luck.  rdesktop couldnt startup from there.  The above is the route that has gotten me the farthest.
