Bug Description

The helper dialog linked to the new remote login feature mentions Citrix support, but this won't be available in 12.10 unfortunately.

We'd like to change the description to mention only RDP, ie the only supported protocol right now, to avoid confusion.

See patch attached to this bug report.

We actually do document this feature in ubuntu-docs but I had already clarified with Michael that only RDP was supported for 12.10.

+1 from Docs Team since we won't need to change anything.

Seems like a change we ought to make if translators can support it. Let's hear from dpm.

Sounds good to me: only 1 string addition, which appears to be necessary.

Looks approved then. I've committed to trunk and will distro patch this in.
