It's not supported, basically, as I said earlier. Nobody has developed the session broker code for Win Server 2008, and until somebody writes it, it ain't there. You can use the -4/-5 options to drop back RDP protocol support, and as long as the server is configured to allow legacy clients (via group policy) they will connect, but without session broker. There is session directory support for Windows Server 2003, although I'm not entirely sure anybody uses it in production. _____ From: rde...@li...

Subject: Re: [rdesktop-users] rdesktop v1.5 with Windows 2008 Session Broker David: Thank you for the reply and I would like to congratulate your team on a wonderful product! It has worked great for us over the years with Windows 2000 and 2003 and I expected some growing pains with Windows 2008. Let me explain my situation and what my ultimate goal is: I have setup 3 Windows 2008 Terminal Servers all identically configured except for their hostname and IP addresses. I'm planning on using NLB on them but for now I'm using RR DNS. I've also configured Session Broker on them so that if they are disconnected at one of our 16 remote sites they will be able to reconnect to their session and I can have a bit of load balancing. This is a great new feature provided free within Windows 2008 and works great for XP / Vista clients. However, I'm having trouble getting the Neoware devices to even login successfully to one of the servers with or without Session Broker turned on. It really seems like a RDP problem to me and I'm experiencing double logins, errors on login (rdesktop exits with an error), and so on. I have the following forums going so you gather more information. I'm willing to work with you all day everyday to get this working so don't hesitate to ask questions!

This is not official support, but as an ex-Neoware now HP engineer who worked on NeoLinux I am interested. Thanks, David Bryant db...@hp... <mailto:db...@hp...> _____ From: rde...@li...

Subject: Re: [rdesktop-users] rdesktop v1.5 with Windows 2008 Session Broker Honestly though, I think the ultimate root of the problem is with Neoware (HP). It is using NeoLinux but we don't have access or the want to upgrade them manually with custom patches. So, I'm going to have to get them to do that. However, I have one more question for you specifically and that is.. do your 2008 Server connections work properly with the new Session Broker? That is, have you test this capability?
