xrdp Remote Desktop TroubleShooting

xrdp Remote Desktop TroubleShooting

I issued a command to install xrdp: sudo apt-get install xrdp
After then using the RDC connection from Windows 7, I was able to get the desktop wallpaper only.
I found this article: http://www.liberiangeek.net/2011/06/connect-to-ubuntu-11-04-from-windows-via-remote-desktop/
From it, I noticed someone else had same issue and provided advice to enter via command line: 1.cd /home/youruser 2.echo “gnome-session –session=ubuntu-2d” > .xsession 3.sudo /etc/init.d/xrdp restart
Doing these steps made things worse. Now when I attempt connection, I get 'error - problem connecting' and am not able to connect at all now.
Any suggestions to fix/remedy this?
