Yes. xfce4 starts up with ~/startwm.sh in place, using the contents and permissions you described. > If you got success with ~/startwm.sh, > there might be a bug of xrdp. Some people reported similar issue to yours. OK. That is a separate issue, but a big one for me, as it makes remote management difficult.

Thank YOU, Iwao-san, for your help with this. The behavior is exactly as you described, but only if we replace the startwm.sh script supplied with the pkg with the two-line version you suggested: #!/bin/sh startxfce4 The startwm.sh script supplied with the package has three different cases for Linux distributions (lines 66-88) but nothing for xfce4 on FreeBSD. Thanks again for your help with the startup issue, and in advance for pointers on debugging the clipboard issue. dnhome | help
