Can't connect to Windows Server 2003 R2
 

9.10 Ubuntu (Karmic)
I could never connect from home using rdesktop, grdp, krdc, etc to the Windows Server 2003 R2 at the office: "Connection reset by peer" or the client simply remains "connecting to...", depending on the client used. Some days I work from home as if I'm sitting in front of my PC at the office.

So I used to boot in Win XP to run mstsc. But the XP partition doesn't boot anymore, no way to fix it, so I need to try the Ubuntu rdp clients.

I even installed a Win XP in a VM (VirtualBox), but now mstsc doesn't connect, it ends due to timeout (as if the Windos Server "knows" I'm not a windows family client)

PLS HLP

Have you tried the 'Terminal Server Client' (tsclient) in Ubuntu?

I have tried everything at hand: rdesktop, KRDC, Remmina...

But you don't mention 'Terminal Server Client' (tsclient). I use this for remote desktop connections everyday. All you would have to do is install it.

Good Luck,

Right, forgot that one: ERROR: recv: Connection reset by peer.
