Proposed patch
Revised patch - trimmed down the changes to the glade file.
I've verified that with this patch there are no additional glade warnings or Gtk messages beyond those that are generated with a build from unmodified upstream svn branch tsclient-unstable.
Patch submitted upstream as <https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3286397&group_id=192483&atid=941576>. Since the problem described in this bug report should be resolved in a recent advisory, it has been closed with a resolution of ERRATA.

Created attachment 472052 [details] Proposed patch Description of problem: The tsclient version in RHEL6 has no apparent means of passing the client hostname to rdesktop. This is a regression with respect to the tsclient that came with RHEL5. This becomes a problem for users that have to specify a client hostname to avoid the bogus "No valid license available" message that the terminal server spits out after many connects - specifying a bogus client hostname is the only way to make further connections to the server. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): tsclient-2.0.2-6.el6 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. Run "tsclient" in RHEL5. 2. Run "tsclient" in RHEL6, add a new connection of type "Windows Terminal Service Connection", look for an option to enter client hostname information. Actual results: 1. Observe that the "Client Hostname" can be set in it for rdesktop client. 2. No option to enter client hostname information. Expected results: Option to enter client hostname information and have it passed to rdesktop. Additional info: Proposed patch (against upstream subversion's branches/tsclient-unstable attached. The glade file part of this patch is fairly large due to changes having been made through the glade-2 rather than directly. It can probably be trimmed down for upstream submission.
