Hi,

since I have upgraded to KUbuntu 13.10 if I want connect to a host with additional option's Krdc won't connect.

If I use the same command from console it's working.

For information, the additionnal option line is :

-r printer:Samsung_ML-2950_Series -r printer:HL-1430

Did you have any idea ?

thank's

If you run "kdebugdialog" and enable all areas, then run Krdc in a terminal, is any relevant output made there which could explain why the connection is failing to be made successfully?

Thank's for your answer

Here is the output :

krdc(28767)/krdc (RDP backend) RdpView::receivedStandardOutput: receivedStandardOutput: "loading plugin rdpdr

It seems that "-r" is invalid, but when I launch it by command line (using rdesktop), there is no problem.

Thank's

Based on that output, KRDC now uses "xfreerdp" rather than "rdesktop" to connect to RDP based desktops - which could very well explain why this occurs. I would suggest checking the documentation of xfreerdp for the appropriate options to use instead.

Thank's for this information,

so when I try in command line with :

xfreerdp --plugin rdpdr --data printer -- -u user host

That's working fine, but when I use those parameters to krdc

--plugin rdpdr --data printer --

I can connect to the server, but no printer.

There is nothing about printers in debug output.

An idea ?

Hmm. Can you compare the actually executed commands, through the output of "ps aux" or similar?

From Krdc :

xfreerdp -g 1280x1024 -k 0x0000040C -d afitse -u xxx -p ******** -D -X 79692398 -a 16 --plugin rdpdr --data disk media /media -- -x l --plugin rdpdr --data printer -- --ignore-certificate --plugin cliprdr -t xxx xxx

From xfreerdp :

xfreerdp --plugin rdpdr --data printer -- -u xxx xxx

I have try to remove some parameters from Krdc command, and I have found the problem.

The right command should be :

xfreerdp -g 1280x1024 -k 0x0000040C -d afitse -u xxx -p ******** -D -X 79692398 -a 16 --plugin rdpdr --data disk media /media --data printer -- -x l --ignore-certificate --plugin cliprdr -t xxx xxx

I can't find the good way to pass the argument with Krdc since it's always added after -x I

Thank's for your interest

I have open a bug report : https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=326306

Not a problem. As the issue is not in Kubuntu itself, but rather in KDE, I would suggest you open a bug at bugs.kde.org instead - where it is likely to get more attention.
