Remote Desktop on windows requires a password on the account you are 
using to log in, the user must also be a member of the remote desktop 
users group or admin.  Remote Desktop and Remote Assistance are 
different. The proper box must be check on the system properties>Remote  
tab. I have rdesktop working here BTW.
