Restarts ======== Service restarts after RPM package upgrades have been disabled on purpose. This is to avoid a situation where an update is performed from within a session running on xrdp, which can then cause dnf to only perform part of the transaction and leave the system in a state that requires further manual intervention, including removal of duplicate packages etc. So, it will be up to the user/admin to restart xrdp service after any RPM package upgrade. This is in line with what other GUI systems like Xorg and Wayland do. xorgxrdp ======== On Fedora, /usr/bin/Xorg is a script that starts either /usr/libexec/Xorg.wrap, which is a SUID binary, or /usr/libexec/Xorg, if the former does not exist. Xrdp binary makes sure that SUID of the Xorg.wrap binary is not obeyed. However, the Xorg.wrap has an additional hurdle to clear, because by default, it will only allow users logged into the console to start it. So, in order to run the Xorg xrdp session via xrogxrdp, normally a user account not logged onto the console will be used. To avoid Xorg.wrap refusing to run, put the following into /etc/X11/Xwrapper.config: allowed_users = anybody SELinux ======= Please note that you may need to add an SELinux policy module in order to run xrdp successfully under Fedora with SELinux enabled. One way to do this is to put SELinux into permissive mode and build the policy from the denials you see in the audit logs. We are working on making this part of the default installation, but it is not quite there yet as of this writing.
