Summary: rdesktop crashes windows server 2003

Initial Comment:
I have tried this both with rdesktop v 1.2 and the
latest cvs.  When I connect via rdesktop, all I get is
a black screen, no login window or anything, completly
useless.  

Then if I kill the rdesktop process, about 15 seconds
later, my win 2003 server crashes (blue screen) and
reboots.  This happens every time. (tried 5 times).  

I am running windows 2003 server build 3790.

Wow, this sounds serious.
However, this bug has been here for a long time and a few
new versions been out since then. Can you please try version
1.4.1 and tell me if this issue still happen?

Hmmm. What does the event log say?

The reboot thing can be fixed by a setting in the System
control panel under the Environment tab (at least on 2000).

If W2K3 is like XP's version of TS, then I can say that at
least XP's TS is reachable and RH9 Linux (with rdesktop
1.2.0) connects every time. There's something funny going on
with my XP workstation, however, and I don't know if it's
related to the problem you're seeing or not. On this XP
workstation, and I have only tested one of them, whenever I
connect with rdesktop, logout, and then physically walk to
the workstation and login under the same account, as soon as
the profile's desktop loads, that screen loses its
horizontal hold and I have no choice but to reboot the PC to
get it back in order. Might be something that is XP-specific
or workstation-specific. Then again, the video problem might
be the thing that is occurring on your 2003, and perhaps
your video driver, instead of losing its horizontal hold
(the hertz setting), it may just blue-screen. Just a hunch
for the smart people who make rdesktop to consider.

I use Windows Server 2003 with the latest version from the
CVS and it works without any problems.

I have no problems to connect to a 2003 server with the
latest CVS version of rdesktop.
