Yes, you can do that with Linux… Even if you want to live in an open source world, it’s still full of Windows. This month we study strategies for Windows integration.
Today’s networks team with an ambitious assortment of systems and devices, and if all these entities didn’t need to communicate, we wouldn't call it a network. As much as you might hope for a world with no Windows, you probably won’t find it anytime soon. This month, we feature some studies in interoperability and system integration.

Thanks for the xrdp article

Though I'd love to read it online, I'm very happy to have seen the article on XRDP in the December magazine (which I'm just reading now.)I now have xrdp up and running on my openSUSE boxes and am able to connect:

XDRP is very unstable and it seems little work is being done to fix it. It continually insists on connecting to port 5910 for vnc when the standard port is 5900 and as far as I can tell this seems to be hard coded. When you try to use any-vnc and tell it specifically to connect to 5900 it still tries 5910 instead. After forcing x11vnc to run on 5910 I still get unresolvable connection errors. I gave up after trying for 2 days. I will stick with an NX client/server setup, it's not the best solution and it's far from integration but at least it works with no nightmarish week long configurations.It also does not help that there is no documentation at all for xrdp.
The other alternative is just to set this up manually

I enjoyed the article on using xrdp in the magazine and was hoping the website would allow me to download the full pdf of the article as it states on the page. But the pdf linked to only seems to cover the single page introduction to the whole seamless integration piece, is there a way to get the xrdp part of this feature as a pdf?
