I was able to setup xrdp on my Fedora 13 machine and access it from my Windows 7 machine by follow the steps on the first post on this thread

It was simple and easy.

But when i try the same on my Fefora 20 machine, things are quite different. There is no error message but some new info like these:

# chkconfig --levels 35 xrdp on

Note: Forwarding request to 'systemctl enable xrdp.service'.

# service xrdp start

Redirecting to /bin/systemctl start xrdp.service

and then I cannot remote it from my window machine.

I also did the following based on the last post of above threa:

# yum -y install tigervnc-server

Any configuration I should do to make xrdp works for me?

I was able to ping each other.

EDIT:

I can access the shared folder on my Windows machine from my Fedora 20. It seems the problem is on the Fedora side. how to know the service on linux is running? The "service --status-all" cannot give me useful information.
