I have a .bash_aliases file with several aliases which I use to connect to Windows machines. The aliases are set up like this:

rdesktop -d domain -u username -p password -k fr-be -g 1920x1024 -T Customer-SupportPC -a 24 IP

Yesterday the connection was working fine, today the connection gives me following error:

ERROR: Failed to open display:

SSH sessions are no problem, it's only a problem with rdesktop to a Windows server. X11 forwarding is set to yes in /etc/ssh/sshd_config

I have never had any luck with the rdesktop program. I have great luck with the remmina package. If you don't mind, I suggest you try that and see if it solves this.
