[Solved] No xrdp.service

I have come to a problem in autobooting xrdp and xrdp-sesman. I am following https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xrdp and I am at the point at which I am supposed to enable the xrdp and xrdp-sesman services. The only problem is that, even though the wiki page says that the aur package for xrdp contains .service files, I try the command line expression and it returns that there are is no .service file for xrpd. I have tried this command in many places throughout the xrdp files. Please help me and excuse my arch ignorance.

Post your actual commands and their outputs, and `uname -a`

Normally I would close this as Archlinux Arm is a separate distribution, however the problem appears to be with the AUR package on Arch as well:

/var/abs/local/xrdp $ tree pkg/ | fgrep .service
/var/abs/local/xrdp $

Try posting a comment in the AUR perhaps.

Re: [Solved] No xrdp.service

Thanks for you response. After some digging around I found that this problem was fixed in an update that was posted on the newer AUR website. The service file was included with the newer 0.8.0-3 update found https://aur4.archlinux.org/packages/xrdp/. The arch wiki still points to the outdated package. Well thanks for the help

As it should.  The "new" aur will be moved to the regular aur url soon (today if my memory serves right) - so any edits to the wiki to point to AUR4 would have to be reverted.

Edit: my memory does not serve right.  Oh well

One more month. Today was the day that you can take over unmaintained packages.
