A nice and convenient variant to use RDP from a Linux box to a windowos system is xfreerdp.

The following switches are used to enable multimonitor usage as well as microphone and sound. Monitor 0 and 1 is used in full screen mode on the linux box. Run xfreerdp from your favorite terminal: 

xfreerdp /monitors:0,1 /multimon /sound /microphone  /u:<user name> /v:<ip address or domain name of the server>


To quit the rdp session press the right <ctrl> key and switch to then in the terminal and press <ctrl>+c.
