enter image description hereThe RDP doesnt connect to the Azure Linux VM suddenly, the error is: Password failed, error- problem connecting. This is the first time its happening. And I tried restarting the VM, Resetting the password and also removing the credentials and adding again to the rdp. Please support on this.

I have encountered exactly the same issue on ubuntu 14.06 running on AWS today. I checked the /var/log/apt/history.log and found out that the system updated the xrdp package automatically xrdp:amd64 (0.6.1-2, 0.6.1-2ubuntu0.1)

I downgraded the package and it now works again.

sudo apt-get install xrdp=0.6.1-2

Then, I decided to exclude xrdp from automatically being updated.

sudo apt-mark hold xrdp

xrdp set on hold.
