Windows Killed on VRDP-Connection

[semmler]

Hi,
i successfully installed VBox 1.4 on my System (Ubuntu Feisty 2.6.20-16, x86_64) , created a VM and installed Win XP.
When I run VirtualBox (GUI) everything works fine and i can work with the guest.

But what i want is to work without gui, so i tried to start the vm with this scripts:

"startvbox"

Code: Select all

#!/bin/sh
brctl delif br0 tap0
tunctl -t tap0 -u xyz
chmod 0666 /dev/net/tun
chgrp vboxusers /dev/net/tun
VBoxManage startvm WinXP -type vrdp

and

"startwinxp"

Code: Select all

#!/bin/sh
rdesktop -A -s "c:\seamlessrdp\seamlessrdpshell.exe C:\Windows\Explorer.exe" 192.168.1.41:3389 -u xyz -p xyz

When i run "sudo startvbox" and a little later "startwinxp" everything seems ok and the taskbar shows up (i disabled the desktop in xp). But when i move the mouse cursor to the taskbar it shows an hourglass (<- is it the right word?) and the process VBoxVRDP dies.

Can anyone help me please? I'm thankfull for any comment.
