Problem

I'm running Ubuntu 10.04, connecting to a Windows 2008 box. I've got rdesktop configured to use RDPv5 (using RDPv4 is known to cause clipboard issues). The clipboard has worked just fine for most of the time that I've been using rdesktop (I've had the machine installed for a year and a half or so).…

Error Output

rdesktop -ubartonski -pXXXXXXXXXX -dNTDOMAIN -ncribbage -g1400x1050 -rsound:local -rclipboard:PRIMARYCLIPBOARD -5 win2k8.prod.mycompany.com
