simple script for rdesktop

hi

I'm looking for a simple script, running on the xfce desktop, asking me for the IP address or server name and starting rdesktop session.

Hi chris,

This simple python script should do trick :) . I wrote it within a few minutes and i have not tested it well. Feel free to hack and use it as you wish
<----------------------------------------->
from tkinter import *
import os
class RemoteDesktopFrontEnd:
def __init__(self,master):
frame = Frame(master)
frame.pack()
self.username_label = Label(master,text="Username")
self.username_label.pack()
self.username_textbox = Entry(master)
self.username_textbox.pack()
self.password_label = Label(master,text="Password")
self.password_label.pack()
self.password_textbox = Entry(master,show="*")
self.password_textbox.pack()
self.ip_label = Label(master , text=" IP ")
self.ip_label.pack();
self.ip_textbox = Entry(master)
self.ip_textbox.pack()
self.login_button = Button(master,text="Login",command=self.do_login)
self.login_button.pack()
def do_login(self):
self.command_to_execute = "rdesktop -k en-us -a 16 -u "+ self.username_textbox.get() + " -p "+self.password_textbox.get() +" " + self.ip_textbox.get()
os.system(self.command_to_execute)

rootWidget=Tk()
rdesktopApp =RemoteDesktopFrontEnd(rootWidget)
rootWidget.mainloop()
