Thanks all. That went MUCH better. In fact, the entire installation went better 
than anything I've tried in the last week.

XRDP is up and running and most of my ansible playbooks for the other distros 
worked with just a few tweaks to package names. It was nice seeing ansible 
skipping over all the systemd handlers ツ 

You all have done a great job with this distro!

Hi,
I use windows 10 rdp client (the old one) to connect to a devuan beowulf
vm in hyperV and it does work and was easy to setup (even with HyperV)
as far as I can recall.

Ciao,
Tito

I use it, I dont think it has ever been perfect but I cant recall 
Beowulf has been any different. I dont come from Windows (mstsc.exe) 
that often though.
Things I recall have bothered me is keyboard not following my language 
(but that was before beowulf and likely me not configuring something) 
and trouble getting something displayed after logon (but just killing my 
own session from ssh and retry solved it). The latter may have been 
beowulf but can be older.
I have never configured xrdp, just install and run it so I end up having 
/usr/sbin/lightdm, /usr/lib/xorg/Xorg, /usr/bin/lxsession, 
/usr/sbin/xrdp-chansrv and openbox plus whatever extra they need running.
Usually I have a ssh session in between but that would likely just 
complicate things unless its the port that is blocked for you.

I have XRDP servers running on a few Beowulf machines just fine.

[DNG] xrdp in devuan?

2021-03-04 Thread vmlinux
Hi All,
I have a segregated LAN with clones of our production machines sitting in it 
which is used for testing patches, developer things, etc. It's a "testing" 
network. People are logging into the test network by connecting their RDP 
client to a desktop VM running XRDP inside the test network.

The current desktop VM is not a Devuan system. I tried upgrading it to a newer 
version of it's OS last week and XRDP no longer works. I fiddled with different 
internet fixes for hours and nothing worked so giving up and looking for 
something else.

Can anyone confirm XRDP is working with Xwindows in Beowulf? Any "unusual 
tricks" to getting it setup? Just want to make sure XRDP and X isn't just 
broken by default now.

Thanks
