xrdp connection method

[David DeMizio <dd...@ncf.edu>]

Hello,

I'm following the directions http://vcl.apache.org/docs/connectmethods.html to
add xrdp for my centos 6.4 VMs but I have a few questions. First, do I need
the start up script(connectmethod table) if I already set my centos image
to start xrdp on start up? Also, for centos I believe it's /sbin/service
xrdp start, would that work or do I need a wrapper script? Thank You

I'll add that I've used xrdp to Ubuntu 12.04 images - from both Windows 7
and Mac OSX. It works reliable and quite nicely - but doesn't have all of
the functionality that the two RDP clients do.

I miss the map the local directory function, and I don't have as good
copy/paste as I'd like.

It still is very usable and functional - esp. since Cloud storage has
become so available, as that can be used to substitute nicely for the
missing functionality.

Hi David,

No you don't have to include it, if it is set to start on boot.
