The disadvantage of NX over RDP is that in an entrenched windows environment, deployment can be an issue.
With RDP, there is no deployment requirement. You tell people to "remote desktop to here" and they do.
I really hope that xrdp succeeds to the point that I can tell people to RDP to a linux server and they don't have to think about it. Hopefully with domain kerberos auth.

Was wondering if anyone has successfully setup xrdp on Ubuntu 9.04?
xrdp is a service that allows Windows machines to connect remotely to
a Linux box via mstsc (Microsoft Terminal Server Client), the
pre-installed RDP client for Windows. When I try to connect, it does
connect, but the screen keeps flashing as though the desktop keeps
trying to restart.
