I have installed Docker desktop on my pc and would like to install kali-rolling docker container with xrdp enabled for remote desktop.
I followed this article https://techspan.org/setup-kali-linux-via-docker-for-rdp-xfce-remote-control/ after many failing attempts, I just changed to use docker host network rather than bridge, but it is still not working. Now I am getting below RDP error:
your computer could not connect to another console session on the remote computer because you already have a console session in progress

Can anyone tell, why can I not RDP to my docker kali linux container?
