Cannot establish RDP connection...?
by L-28C from LinuxQuestions.org on (#6D367)
I need an RDP connection but I cannot seem to get past the log in screen. I added a fresh new user just for RDP and it's still not working. Can somebody help? It just gives a black screen on the client. The server shows these errors in journalctl, but nothing useful in the actual xrdp log:
