Goals:
When I remote desktop I want to connect to the console screen most of the time.
I want the clipboard to work between windows and linux.
When I remote desktop I want to connect to the console screen most of the time.
To get the console screen when connecting do the following:
- In Linux, open for editing
/etc/xrdp/xrdp.ini - In the section
- The section [xrdp1] can be changed to look like this:
name=sesman-Xvnc
lib=libvnc.so
username=ask
password=ask
ip=127.0.0.1
port=ask-1 - The only change is from “port=-1” to “port=ask-1”
- The ‘ask’ in port gives an opportunity to make changes to the log in
- When connecting remotely the first connected screen will show:
“error – problem connecting”
Ignore this and click the OK button - The next screen defaults to “sesman X11rdp”, but you can select “console” in the module drop down list. Use the default option module “sesman X11rdp” for connecting to a different session.
An interesting thing to note: You can create an xsession file automatically so when a different user logs on they will get the same session each time.

When using RDP to remote in, I want the clipboard to work between windows and linux.
It will go from Linux to Win7 but not the other way around. Use the keyboard, ’cause rclick won’t work.
