From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

It never would have occurred to me to run a RDP server in Linux. It is a proprietary protocol. I would run a different server on a linux machine.
Edit: Thinking back to doing something similar seems like we set up XRDP. I usually just Forward X sessions if I want graphical environments in linux, but I do seem to recall doing it with XRDP too. I think you needed to have a user directory, but they did not have to be logged in.
