remote desktop connection linux to windows
 

hi i'm trying to connect using krdc on my linux box to my windows box i got all the setting right and all and i get the windows log in screen on my linux box but i can't do anything else from there, i see my windows login name but when i come to type my password i can't type anything, my keyboard stops responding only mouse... i'm using suse 10.0

Try using the "rdesktop" command directly from the command-line (see "man rdesktop" for instructions); and see if it has the same problem.

ok here is what happened

You gave "-k" without any arguments. Try

rdesktop is far superior anyway. Krdc tries to load too much stuff by default and slows things way down. Just do rdeskop {hostname} for a quick test. My standard for fullscreen is this: rdesktop -a 16 -fullscreen -u {username} -p {password} {hostname}.
