Password length limited to 14 characters with -p
option. Have tested this and unfortunately true, though
I couldn't find anything in the documentation saying
this was so.
Any password over 14 simply gets cut down to 14, and
obviously you get an invalid password error.

At least with Win2003 and "-p -" and the password piped
through stdin this is not the case. Maybe you used rdp4 ?

tried to stdin the password and that does the same thing. I am very sure it is rdpv5 as it is windows 2000. But thanks for the suggestion.
