Whenerver I try to log on to our Windows 2008 R2 server via rdesktop, the window stays at the same small size. I can neither enlarge the window at the borders nor maximize it. Alt+Ctrl+Enter simply gives me the same window-content on the full screen with the rest simply grey.
Is that normal behaviour for rdesktop? Is there an alternative?
I'm having problems with vpnc on F12 that work fine on F10 and F11. On F12, I can connect and can do some activities, but so far I noticed the following (show-stopping) issues:Attempting to connect to an Oracle database using either sqlplus or TORa hangs and eventually times out. I tried both the 11G and 10G instant clients.Copying a file to the host via a smb:// mount in nautilus freezes. An empty file is created though.
A rdesktop client opens a "black" window and goes no further. I attempted to downgrade vpnc on my F12 workstation from vpnc-0.5.3-4.fc12.x86_64 to vpnc-0.5.3-3.fc11.x86_64 to no avail. I also downgraded libgcrypt too and this didn't help either. Moreover, I upgraded these to the F13 rawhide version - still no luck.
I also confirmed on a F11 virtual machine that these work and that it doesn't work on 2 x64 and 1 x386 F12 machines. (The configuration and the host are the same in all cases.)
In trace file of tpcdump I am seeing Zero window size. I have receive buffer set like this:
net.ipv4.tcp_rmem = 4096 87380 16777216
net.ipv4.tcp_wmem = 4096 65536 16777216
But when I look at the advertized window size it's only 1K? Why is it not set to more than that? I should see it 16M somewhere it doesn't start with it neither does it scale that much. tcp_window_scaling is also set to 1
I have asked for a video capturing software before but recommend a GOOD screen recorder where you can select the window/window size the axis and also a good editing software which will render/export into FULL 720p HD

I was also able to define a default window size of a new terminal window. But since after upgrading to to the first release this year and a complete new installation of the current release Maverick i do not find this option anymore. Is there a way how to set up the terminal default window size?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have some problems with Ubuntu 10.04. Sometimes system starts and there is no title bar on windows. Nothing helps, only logout and logina again. I've searched forums and found that it is possible to add line '/usr/bin/compiz' to starting applications, but this is not helping. I'm stuck. Other problem is that sometimes recently theme is changed. If I go to 'Appearance' then theme suddenly changes back.

Why the thread stack size can not be changed after calling pthread_attr_setstacksize & pthread_create in a dynamic library? Detail: I write a file thread_factory.c and plan to build it and produce a dynamic library (libthread_factory.so) In the thread_factory.c , there is a routine
[Code]....
And after this, there is application, it will call fct_thread_create(STACK_SIZE_256KB), and then call pthread_attr_getstacksize(), but the stack size return always be a fixed value 0xa01000. (I tried this on Fedora12) But if I build the application source code with the file thread_factory.c directly, the stack size return is right as my expect. I checked the source code of glibc about the routine pthread_create() as below:

View 4 Replies View RelatedAt work we are planning on migrating XP machines to ubuntu, and from there connect via remote desktop to a Windows Server 2008. That part is working perfectly, but our problem now is how to set up ubuntu to "share" the local webcam, so it can be used from the remote session in the server. Going through rdesktop man page there is a redirection option, but doesn't say anything about USB devices.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've happily been using rdesktop to access my MS Vista desktop from Ubuntu (Hardy) for a few months until a couple of days ago when it stopped working. Now if I try connecting I get the following:
[Code]....
I don't believe anything's changed on the client (Ubuntu) side. The Vista box is occasionally connected to a corporate intranet via VPN and it was after such a session that rdesktop stopped working, so perhaps a Windows group policy was modified during the session. I've checked the basics - can ping 10.1.1.2 from Ubuntu, can access port 3389. Have deleted ~/.rdesktop and ~/.tsclient.
Digging around the Vista client I noticed in Control Panel > System Properties > Remote that in the Remote Desktop sub-panel the Allow connections only from computers running Remote Desktop with Network Level Authentication setting is enabled and that the other two are greyed out. Now, I don't know whether this setting has been changed but I suspect that it might be the problem.
Unfortunately, I don't know enough about Windows to know how or even whether I can change this setting to Allow connections from computers running any version of Remote Desktop (less secure) I've poked around the group policy editor (gpedit.msc) but no joy.
I have problem with login into Windows 2008 server usning rdesktop 1.6.

My OS is Ubuntu 10.04 64-bit.

View 5 Replies View RelatedUsing the following command, I can access a windows 2008 server: rdesktop -u myusername -d mydomain -p - -fP -r sound:local -r disk:myhome=/home/myhome serveraddress
connection works fine, and to start with I can see my local disk "\tsclientmyhome" and navigate around + open files. If I try to delete a file or rename a folder, I get an Error 0x8007048F:The device is not connected.
After this, I can no longer access the local disk. It says: "\tsclientmyhome is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions. Attempt to access invalid address." As I understand it, I should be contacting myself about permissions...

The issue i found is that when i connect from ubuntu to windows 2003 server, through rdesktop, using the numeric keypad disables automatically the caps lock setting.To reproduce the problem :
- connect to a windows remote pc through rdesktop
- open notepad
- press caps lock to set the capital letters
[code]....
The result is :

The caps lock has been silently deactivated. Only ubuntu clients are affected by this. I think it's a bug of rdesktop.

View 1 Replies View RelatedCan the size of the Ubuntu desktop window be reduced so that it displays on a monitor or via a data projector with a surrounding black border? If so, how? The tragicomic chain of events which leads to the question is as follows. Community group, short of cash, want to equip lecture room. Pull-down screen is set up permanently on one wall. Contractor sets up old data projector via ceiling mount. Data projector is just too far away from wall, such that image cannot be reduced sufficiently by the data projector to fit on the screen.
Annoyingly the image, as displayed, is only slightly too large - just enough to lose the top and bottom panels, Applications menu, File Menu on full-size windows, Indicator applet, Trash, and restore desktop button. The data projector is hooked up via VGA cable to a recycled PC running Ubuntu 10.04 with proprietary NVidia driver (version 173) for GeForce 8400 GS. I'll give anything to be able to do this on the PC, rather than having to move the projector!

how to configure rdesktop to connect to a Windows (XP/2003) computer, but going through a Terminal Services Gateway or connecting to a Terminal Services Server through TLS/SSL? The command line options or any on-line documentation I was able to find, omits this entirely. Using the Windows Remote Desktop Client (RDP6) you can configure Terminal Services Gateway connections from the Advanced Tab. I suspect that rdesktop, gnome-rdp, tsclient et el can't do this yet as they support up to RDP5. Currently I am using a WinXP VM to accomplish this, but would like to do this natively on my Linux box.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am running Ubuntu 10.04 LTS.
The issue is that Gnome will not "remember" the size and location of the window in which an app was last run. For example - I run Disk Usage Analyzer and stretch the window to be the full height of the screen and about half the width of the screen and move it to the far left of the desktop. I then close the app. The next time I run it the app comes up in a "default" window size, not the size I last used, positioned randomly on the desktop.
p.s. I should add that some apps seem to remember their prior window size/position. For example OpenOffice.org, Firefox, Nautilus.
I am in the process of customizing my desktop, and I have run into a problem. As a programmer, I will invariable end up with tons of windows open. I would like to expand the gnome-panel's Window List's y size to allow more applications to show without being crunched together.
That's the way the desktop currently looks, notice the tiny Window List in the top left. That's as big as it gets. I want to expand it all along the entire left side. I have a feeling the answer is in gconf-editor, but i just can't find the right field to modify.
