Here is a tcp dump and alert file. 

Obfuscated and on a false account, in case the alert is right... 

Thanks

False Positives:
Connect to a MS Server using rdesktop.

The rdesktop man page seems to indicate that default use is encrypted.

From the rdesktop man page...

       -e     Disable encryption.  This option is only needed (and will 
only work) if  you
              have a French version of NT TSE.

       -E     Disable  encryption  from  client  to server.  This sends an 
encrypted login
              packet, but everything after  this  is  unencrypted  
(including  interactive
              logins).

Either the rule is misfiring or rdesktop is not behaving as advertised. 
Evidence suggests a misfire.
