RE: Rdesktop users?
I use rdesktop, I am not aware of any settings needed at the rdesktp
end, I just use it.
This is used for sys admin work though, so we only have 2 licenced
connections.

The win server issues you a temporary license bound to your hostname,
which expires after 30 days, at which point they demand you buy a client
access license. Just change your supplied hostname every 30 days with
the -n option to rdesktop to get around this. Or, buy a client access
license, figure out how to use it in rdesktop (possible ?) and go legit
if that's your thing =)
