SLED11 SP3 tsclient does not allow new Terminal Service Clients to be added.
This document (7014387) is provided subject to the disclaimer at the end of this document.
Environment
Situation
When executing tsclient > add connection > verify 'Windows Terminal Service' client is greyed out
With earlier versions of SLED11 than SP3, the default tsclient behavior is to offer the possibility to connect to a 'Windows Terminal Service' client under 'Add Connection'.
With SLED11 SP3 this option has now been 'greyed out' and no longer possible to connect to by default.
Resolution
- touch a file called rdesktop under /sbin
- chmod u+x rdesktop
- execute tsclient, add connection, verify 'Windows Terminal Service' client can be selected again.
