+xrdp - Remote Desktop Server for Linux
+
+Xrdp provides a fully functional Linux terminal server, capable of accepting 
+connections from rdesktop and Microsoft's own terminal server/remote desktop 
+clients.  Xrdp uses Xvnc or X11rdp (which are installed separately) to manage
+the X session.  This means a RDP client can connect to a VNC server on the 
+xrdp server machine in addition to the RDP server.  Xrdp can also act as a 
+bridging server, allowing RDP clients to connect to other RDP or VNC servers 
+through the xrdp server.
+
+Xvnc can be installed by installing tightvnc (available on SlackBuilds.org).
+X11rdp can be compiled and installed by following the directions in the 
+thread at http://tinyurl.com/2ufoz2 (link to LinuxQuestions.org).
+
+By default, this script will make xrdp without PAM support since PAM is not 
+installed in Slackware by default.  The script supports building with PAM,
+but it is completely untested by us.  If you want to enable PAM, run the
+script as follows:
+	USE_PAM=YES ./xrdp.SlackBuild
+
+After installing xrdp there are some configuration files in /etc/xrdp that 
+can be modified.  sesman.ini has some useful options to take note of such as 
+the ability to allow xrdp use by only a certain group and to specify the log 
+location (the default log location has been changed to /var/log/sesman.log).  
+xrdp.ini should be modified so that you have the options you want at the 
+server login screen. For instance, if you want xrdp's default options to be 
+like those of a Windows RDP server then change xrdp.ini so that the default 
+set of options under [xrdp1] corresponds to sesman-X11rdp.  Similarly, you 
+might want to change the options (eg. port number) for VNC (listed as 
+"console" by default).  The man page for xrdp.ini has more details on the 
+file.
+
+/etc/xrdp/xrdp-xinitrc by default loads KDE during a X11rdp session.  Change 
+this as desired to load a different DE/WM.  A similar script can be executed 
+on a per-user basis by creating an executable script at ~/.xrdp-xinitrc.  A 
+utility program, xrdp-xwmconfig, is included to allow you to use your xinit 
+scripts during X11rdp sessions.  It works just like xwmconfig, so run it as 
+root to set the global default, or run it as a normal user to set only the 
+default for that user.  See the sesman.ini man page for details about 
+defining different names or locations for the X11rdp startup scripts.
