For kde, edit /etc/xrdp/startwm.sh and make SESSION=plasma. Then login again.
That's what I tried in my first step. I have verified that my Linux desktop is X11 (/usr/bin/Xorg.bin is running). Xrdp does not want to start plasma (or the Windows RDP client doesn't recognize it). And I don't see anything useful in a log to help find out why it is not working. I'm not expecting display :0 here. Just any KDE/plasma desktop.
I don't know about the display:0 issue, but could it be that the Windows client needs to have an X server? A good free one is Xming.
It should not need a server as I am not wanting to run the desktop on the Windows client. I want it to access a desktop running on the Linux remote. tightvnc allows this. I guess it is a VNC ability. -- Roger Oberholtzer
