Package: remmina
Version: 1.0.0-3
Severity: minor

Whenever a RDP server change keys (a thing that could happen and happened
here due to some weird update for the OS maybe) remmina does not allow 
connection 
with a misleading message such as:

'Unable to connect to RDP server XXX.YYY.ZZZ'

When running from a terminal a more clear message appears:

-------------
connected to XXX.YYY.ZZZ:3389
The host key for XXX.YYY.ZZZ has changed
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
@    WARNING: REMOTE HOST IDENTIFICATION HAS CHANGED!     @
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
IT IS POSSIBLE THAT SOMEONE IS DOING SOMETHING NASTY!
Someone could be eavesdropping on you right now (man-in-the-middle attack)!
It is also possible that a host key has just been changed.
The fingerprint for the host key sent by the remote host is
28:8b:71:be:4b:cd:a2:96:2f:78:32:f6:17:19:0f:21:d3:db:af
Please contact your system administrator.
Add correct host key in ~/.freerdp/known_hosts to get rid of this message.
Host key for XXX.YYY.ZZZ has changed and you have requested strict checking.
Host key verification failed.
SSL_write: Failure in SSL library (protocol error?)
Authentication failure, check credentials.
If credentials are valid, the NTLMSSP implementation may be to blame.
---------------


Other obscure certificates errors (e.g. due to mismatches between host 
FQDN and MS host names) could also appear and again remmina diagnostic
results poor. Having a friendly frontend with a so unfriendly diagnostic
is pointless and lately I reverted to use a plain and clean rdesktop due
to these problems.

Cheers.
