Hi,

We are using XRDP on Our RHEL6 machine.
Please find below details about our machine:

[root@xxx]$ cat /etc/redhat-release
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.8 (Santiago)
[root@xxx]$ rpm -qa | grep xrdp
xrdp-0.6.1-4.el6.x86_64
[root@xxx]$ /etc/init.d/xrdp status
xrdp (pid  5095) is running...
xrdp-sesman (pid  5100) is running...

In PuTTY my $PATH is like below:

[root@xxx]$ echo $PATH
/usr/lib64/qt-3.3/bin:/opt/EE_XX/bin/:/opt/APTOdevel/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/opt/bin:/opt/UsageModel:/root/bin

When Our user try to access the server using XRDP $PATH is different so we are facing some environment issue.
Please find below attachment for better understanding.

You can reset your PATH by editing startwm.sh as you like.

Please find below line which i edit in startwm.sh:

PATH="/usr/lib64/qt-3.3/bin:/opt/EE_LinXXX/bin/:/opt/APTOdevel/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/opt/bin:/opt/UsageModel"

One more information, RHEL7 XRDP is setting PATH correctly.
Issue is only on RHEL6.

Surround with ``` or ~~~ when you paste config or log. If massively long, attach is better.

Yes, Can i give startwm.sh file again.

Maybe xrdp on RHEL7 has different startwm.sh from RHEL6's. What about bring it from RHEL7?

Yes, I guess you are right.

I could see some difference in "/etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc-common" file of RHEL 6 and RHEL 7.

RHEL 7 the file is like below:
