on M$ RDP client, basic file transfer can be achieved by enabling 'local devices' in the 'resource sharing' tab of the RDP connection. The local drives (from your RDP client machine) are then exposed as mapped drives on the target machine.
I therefore assumed that checking one or more of the "Disk Sharing" check boxes on the front end connection details screen for rDesktop would work the same way ... but I just tried it & it didn't - checing myDocs and/or Mem Card's seemed to have no effect on the target PC. Not sure if that's a bug or if I'm just misunderstanding the purpose of those check boxes. I'd be interested to know the answer either way ...
nb - Only contemplate this method (even if it works) if you trust the target system to be secure and virus free; it potentially exposes your n900 security-wise.

I suppose you could run a basic ftp server on your target as a work around?

ok, I'm a total noob both here & wth n900, so I'm out of ideas :-) I'm sure someone will be able to explain/fix the disk sharing stuff as I can't think of any other purpose for that ... good luck!

using the "rdesktop-cli -f -u xxx -p xxx 123.123.123.123:12345" command line i get the following message:
WARNING: Remote desktop does not support colour depth 16; falling back to 24
WARNING: Remote desktop changed from 800x480 to 1920x1200.
disconnect: Unknown reason. Error code: 768
anyone know how to set up a shortcut on N900's desktop so I don't need to type the whole thing everytime in xterminal?
Wondering if there will be a new version or rdesktop that will support using a custom port?

does rdesktop support file transfer from server to client? If it does, how? I cannot find anything related on browsing remote and local folders within the rdesktop.
Thanks.
