[Gllug] Tunneling Win2k/XP Terminal services over ssh

[Alan Peery]

After finishing up the puty config so that VNC sessions nicely tunnel to 
my remote servers, I'm now moving on to MS Terminal Services.  I'm not 
having a lot of luck, and I am hoping that someone knows how to convince 
the new RDP client to stop being so smart/stupid.

It seems that the latest version of  Terminal Services has changed quite 
a bit from previous version.  After digging around a bit, I found docs 
on the new version and its config files at:

     http://dev.remotenetworktechnology.com/ts/rdpfile.htm

Following the recipes there, I changed a working .rdp file so that it 
would contact my local port, hopefully then forwarding the packets down 
the tunnel.  The change was simple:

    full address:s:localhost:3385

When I double-click the .rdp file, I get "The client could not connect. 
 You are already connected to the console of this computer.  A new 
console session cannot be established."  

There is a parameter that seems relevant, but changing the value to 0 or 
1 didn't seem to do anything.

    connect to console:i:1

Any ideas?
