I would also like to know if there is a way to resolve this. Is it a bug as we also use a 2008 server farm and rdesktop6.0 I don't think supports Network Level Authentication (NLA), which is required to pass the credentials to another server in the farm.
There is a project which is continuing rdesktop called http://www.freerdp.com/ If this could be installed on OpenThinClient would resolve the issues encountered here.
