Error trying to RDP to RHEL 7.5 server

Hey folks:

I’m running Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server 7.5 (Maipo) on a Dell PowerEdge R430 (with no monitor attached, but iDRAC configured on an isolated 2nd NIC).

Output of uname -a is: Linux 3.10.0-957.5.1.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed Dec 19 10:46:58 EST 2018 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

I’m trying to get XRDP working on my RHEL 7.5 server. I set up XRDP on the server as follows:

yum -y install xrdp tigervnc-server
systemctl start xrdp
systemctl enable xrdp
firewall-cmd --permanent --add-port=3389/tcp
firewall-cmd —reload

I then configured an RDP connection in my desktop client app, and tried to connect, and am getting an error that says “Your session ended because of a data encryption error. If this keeps happening, contact your system administrator for assistance. Error code 0x407”

/var/log/messages shows the output in the file attached to this post.

Anyone have suggestions on where to start to troubleshoot?

Sounds familiar:

Did you configure RDP after loading it? Check selinux? Verify it was running/listening??? And as asked last year regarding the same issue, have you contacted RHEL support, since you're using RHEL 7?? And as asked previously also, what's the purpose of doing this, when you can simply run "ssh -X user@host", and run ANY GUI application as needed? You still don't need an entire desktop.
