I have built the current FreeRDP on Debian. I can connect to the full desktop my Windows 2008 RDS server using any of the three security protocols (rdp, tls, nla). But when I attempt the RemoteApp feature, I never see a window to click OK to the Windows logon banner. This is the banner set via group policy called "Message text for user attempting to log on".

My suspicion is that the --app parameter or the rail plugin is checking for the application on the other end before showing the window, but I need to see the full window in order to click OK. I'm willing to provide more information to help this feature succeed. I think RemoteApp paves the way for more non-Windows clients in the workplace.
