rdesktop shows refused connection on Ubuntu 7.10


Hello

I tried to connect to a system using rdesktop.
Quote:
rdesktop -a 24 -f 192.168.100.92
and it gave the reply
Quote:
ERROR: connect: Connection refused
The system to which I tried to connect has BOSS LINUX installed. I permitted others to view your desktop,control your desktop buttons in Remote Desktop Preference

Thanx in advance..

rdesktop is an rdp client, and last time i checked there were no rdp servers for unix at all, only Microsoft Terminal Services. maybe you want a vnc client?
