I've got rdesktop installed.

I setup a mock invite on a winxp box and saved it to a shared folder. On a linux box, I have smbmount'ed the shared folder, and have access to the file. The file is an XML file, invite.msrcincident with the following values:

USERNAME="yourmom" RCTICKET="65538,1,192.168.0.3:3389;soccerdork:3389,*,XJy5Qmn0Oeq/X16Ie3Fspt8+sqF3yxqAZ2c10YIss5A=,*,*,oU0eJGcvlaP0bZtkAWrarmrN0Nw="
RCTICKETENCRYPTED="1"
DtStart="1101187655"
DtLength="43200"
PassStub="eS@8Yll3nv5*5f"
L="0"

Not quite sure what to do from here, rdesktop mans make no mention of such files.
