Yes I have, and it works well with any kind of RDP quality setting. I also run 
VMware Console on the desktop over FreeNX, and that works well. Don't know 
how I'd work remotely without it ;-).

I'd like to use RDP with NX, because NX is just a hell of a lot better.

Ah, yes, that should be possible. Export the printer through the NX Client, 
and then export it via rdesktop. Not spectacularly nice, but good enough.

Hmmm, interesting. What would that involve.
