"connection reset by peer" when rdesktop connects windows 2000 terminal server

Some article in freshmeat says, it may be a license problem. So when start up, simply add the "-n yourhostname" to give it a new hostname. fsck.

quote:

You will get the message: ERROR: recv: Connection reset by peer
Broken pipe
if a client side license is missing.
Try running "-n testme" ./rdesktop -n testme yourservername

The "-n" will choose a client name and therefore be given a 90 day temporary license for that client. After 90 days, change "-n testme" to a different name, such as "testme2". You can do this indefinitely. Some versions of rdesktop use the --built-in-license flag as well.
