Juniper network--Ran under 0.9.58, fails under 1.1.23

leon244 · Post by **leon244** » Wed Jun 10, 2009 6:26 am

I am running Mandriva. Under 2008.1 I ran wine 0.9.58 and ies4linux and using this was able to access my desktop at work via Windows Terminal Session which runs Juniper Network. Under Mandriva 2009.1, wine 1.1.23 is installed and everything runs until I try to access my desktop at work via Windows Terminal Services and the process hangs when dsTermServ.exe is begun and the window freezes and I cannot complete the connection to the desktop. Everything else on the system is unchanged except the version of wine. I have tried disabling the firewall on my machine and there is no change. In fact with the same machine and settings, if I boot into 2008.1 I can access the desktop. Also, if I remove wine 1.1.23 and reinstall wine 0.9.58 under Mandriva 2009.1, Juniper will run and I can get to the desktop. The other problem with 0.9.58 is that when I end the connection, wineserver does not close down and has to be killed separately by the user.

I have no idea where to go next in hunting down what has changed or what I may need to do to fix this and am hoping someone can give me some guidance.

What do you need Wine for? Use 'rdesktop' a native Linux program to talk to terminal server.

Thanks, not sure if my work will support it, but will give it a try and see if I can make it work. Appreciate your input.

Can't get rdesktop to work. Still need to get Juniper Networks going.

It's very strange; there is not much of application more simple and
straight-forward than rdesktop.
What desktop environment do you use? Both KDE and Gnome have nice
rdesktop-based graphical terminal clients (Krdc in KDE) which can connect to
RDP servers just fine. I use Krdc every day at home and at work connection
to a bunch of Windows XP/2003/2008 machines without a glitch. You don't need
Windows Terminal Services under Wine ever.

On the other hand, if some program worked in the past with Wine and stopped
working now, it's a regression; you could help Wine project by doing a
regression test and reporting a bug to Wine's Bugzilla at
http://bugs.winehq.org/

Thank you. appears the issue for rdesktop is at the server at work; access is not open on the port needed.

As for the regression analysis, I will try to find out how to do it and do a bug report if I can get the information. Thanks

You have about one year's worth of code to go through. Might I suggest
using the 1.0.1 stable release and see if that works?

Thank you. I think I am going to have to pass on the regression. Too much for me. I have been able to get rdesktop working on my 32 bit machine and am working on the 64bit machine. I'll pass on Wine for this use. Thank you all for your responses. They were very helpful.
