Darren, Thanks, I have to pull myself away from this for the rest of the evening but perhaps we could try that out tomorrow? In the mean time I want to try using freerdp client by itself to see if that is indeed the problem. I also thought about down grading the remote desktop app in Windows to an older version but it sounds like that should not be necessary. Nick, Yes I have disabled NLA and my connection via rdesktop relies on authentication at Windows sign in. Thanks I will let you all know tomorrow if I have any luck
