Questions[xrdp](ubuntu)

I want to know how to setup xRDP for Ubuntu 20.04 in Windows Hyper-V? Tutorials for Ubuntu 18.04 doesn't seem to work. I am using the ISO that I downloaded.

These are the tutorials I used. They all basically say the same thing...

I installed Ubuntu 20.04 and then installed xrdp. Whenever i tried to connect, either from another Ubuntu 20.04 box using either xfreerdp or krdc, or from a Mac, a black screen would show up, and then immediately disconnect. i made sure i did not have any other sessions on the server going on at the same time.

After a while, i gave up and tried the script at: https://www.c-nergy.be/products.html it didn't make a difference

this is the only output from /var/log/xrdp.log

thank you very much

I've installed mate and xrdp on Ubuntu 18.04. Now I try to connect to this PC from another Ubuntu with Remmina:

I press OK, login window disappears background is same,nothing happens. My ~/.xsession contains mate-session.

xrdp.log contains stuff like this:

How do I fix or diagnose this brilliant piece of software?

I installed a clean Ubuntu18.04 with minimal installation and installed the xrdp package.

After the XRDP user/password there is a password prompt in ubuntu for my user popping up. When I enter it the connection just dies and the connection windows dissapears.

Does anyone got xrdp running on the 18.04 release yet?

Thanks in advance

After a couple days of searching for solutions, I still cannot get a proper RDP connection fron Windows 7 to Ubuntu Desktop 13.10 (or 14.04). When I use RDP in Windows, it will connect to my Ubuntu box just fine, but I get a gray/black pixel screen with an "X" for a cursor.

Here's what I've tried so far (in both 13.10 and 14.04)

• Created .xsession file to use gnome-2d

• Installed xfce4 and updated .xsession file to use that

• I did indeed restart xrdp after any change to the .xsession file

• Modified startwm.sh to point to the location of the .xsession file

• chmod 755 .xsession file so it's executable

• Updated nvidia drivers

I'm at a loss as to what's going on. I was able to use x11vnc to take control of the Ubuntu machine, but I'm trying to create an actual remote session from Windows, and not just take control.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, I've been searching around for a solution, and so far any other people who've encountered this, their solution has not been successful for me.
