Problem:
$ rdesktop -n 184d 192.168.2.5
Autoselected keyboard map en-us
disconnect: Internal licensing error.
User 184d can connect ONLY ONE TIME, and after disconnect it fail again.
Solution:
The workarround that I find, until a patch for this bug is released, is to do:
# chown -R root.root /home/
and just in case:
# chmod -R 444 /home/
then just delete the license.
I'm using rdesktop 1.6.0 with Ubuntu 9.04, trying to connect to a Windows
2008 Enterprise 64bit with SP2.

Thanks you very much, it helps a lot !
See you !
I'm sorry but this is just a temporary fix. Works only the first time. There's a lot of similar posts out there recommending changing the folder permissions but this isn't very elegant (esp. for a user environment).
Has there been any further development on this issue that anyone knows about? It would be a great help! Thank you.
This helped!!
