NOTE:
To forward rdesktop connections, HP recommends redirecting from /media/usb0
(where 0 = 1st device, 1= 2nd device, 2 = 3rd device, 3 = 4th device) for hard drive and
USB drive key. As devices are added and removed, links are automatically created in this
location. For USB CD-ROM drives, redirect from /media/cd.
You can change device ownership and attributes by editing /etc/fstab. See "man fstab" and
"man mount" for details. You can type man fstab or man mount at a xterm session
command line to display the options and settings available for editing and configuring "fstab".
NOTE:
When creating an rdesktop connection, if you receive a printer error, for example,
"Couldn't open printcaps," make sure you properly installed the printer using the printing
applet in the system setting control panel.
