I've been digging through the existing channel code to try to find the common elements which is pretty much the same thing, plus a whole bunch of hours. I'm fine on the RDS plugin, just need some help on the client end. I would seriously appreciate it if you have the code and can commit it somewhere. I'm not sure how useful it would be to others but since FreeRDP has now hit 1.0 I have a feeling more than just a few people are going to figure out how useful this is, especially in the cloud, and are going to want their own channels. Arbitrary channels always been one of the best features of the RDP protocol but until now has only really been available under Windows unless you wanted to write the whole subsystem for yourself.
