greetings

#2

make sure you have xorg-x11-Xvnc and if that package exists please restart the xrdp once.

#3

openSuse 13.2 LXDE

x11vnc was installed I have now also installed xorg-x11-xvnc from https://software.opensuse.org/package/xorg-x11-Xvnc?search_term=xorg-x11-xvnc
restarted xrdp : linux-z3uw:~ # service xrdp restart
Same error vnc error-problem connecting

#4

Have you installed xrdp from repo or Source

#5

https://software.opensuse.org/package/xrdp?search_term=xrdp

Installed one click with yast X11:RemoteDesktop

#6

Most of them have posted that installing xrdp from that particular repo does not work. So I suggest you to completely remove xrdp along with config files and try installing xrdp either from ltsp repo or source.

If you want I can post the procedure here.

Thanks.

#7

Removed xrdp and config files then installed xrdp-0.9.0git.1420692256-16.1.x86_64.rpm from
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/server:/ltsp/openSUSE_13.2/x86_64/

Same problem connecting with rdp

vnc error connecting
some problem

Did not know it should be that hard to get rdp working for LXDE why??.

#8

Did you check the firewall?

#9

Firewall is disabled.

#10

could you please post the output of

rpm -qa | grep -i vnc
#11 
linux-z3uw:~ # systemctl start xrdp
linux-z3uw:~ # rpm -qa | grep -i vnc
xorg-x11-Xvnc-1.4.1-6.35.1.x86_64
tightvnc-1.3.10-123.1.x86_64
tigervnc-1.4.1-6.35.1.x86_64

#12

Remove tightvnc and restart the xrdp service.

#13

Removed tightvnc :

linux-z3uw:~ # rpm -qa | grep -i vnc
xorg-x11-Xvnc-1.4.1-6.35.1.x86_64
tigervnc-1.4.1-6.35.1.x86_64

restarted xrdp
Unfortunately same error when trying to connect by rdp

vnc error connecting
some problem

#14

I have tested it in a VM and it’s working for me. I don’t know what went wrong in your case.

#15

Thanks for the support. VNC is working maybe I have to reinstall opensuse 13.2 LXDE and start all over.

#16

If you are doing it in a newly installed machine please add ltsp and install xrdp. It works in my case. No need to install any other packages.

Thanks

#17

Did a fresh new opensuse 13.2 LXDE install.
Also installed xrdp from ltsp .
Reboot.
Then tried to start xrdp :

linux-utdl:/home/node3# service xrdp start
service: no such service xrdp

RDP still no working.

#18

Are you using LXDE ?

#19

Yes I have tested it with LXDE.

#20

start xrdp with following command.

#sudo /etc/xrdp/xrdp.sh start
