I posted to this newsgroup a while back. Eventually I realised that my
problem was
caused by my server being a citrix rather than an rdp server. Citrix
have add extras
to the protocol, which breaks rdesktop. If you hae a citrix server, why
not just use the
citrix client? It is free to download from http://www.citrix.com??
