Capitalise "Remote Desktop Protocol". That "log into" should be
"log in to", which leaves you with too many "to"s. How about:
xrdp uses the Remote Desktop Protocol to present the user with a
graphical login to a distant server.

Simpler: "xrdp can connect the user to..."

Why doesn't Linux get a capital letter? I presume this means:
Microsoft Windows users can connect to a system running xrdp without
installing additional software.
Something like this would also avoid the sentence-initial lowercase.
I've left out the word "Linux" on the grounds that it should work
equally well on Debian's Hurd and Kfreebsd ports!

The conventional wisdom is that this should be
Homepage: http://xrdp.sourceforge.net
with an extra leading space to suppress wrapping.
