I am trying to pass "-r disk:Home=/home/user" to rdesktop but I am finding that the equals sign is being eaten by something.  I have used both the vmware-view '-r' switches and '--rdesktopOptions' and both seem to behave the same way.

Is it possible to escape the equals sign or perhaps am I quoting it incorrectly?

# set redirect w/ -r
$ vmware-view --rdesktopOptions="-x b -a 16" -r clipboard:PRIMARYCLIPBOARD -r 'isk:Home=/home/user
$ ps u -C rdesktop

hi,

have you tried --rdesktopOptions=... ? not sure if that works but worth a try. sorry, I don't have access to a view environment to try it first.
