Once the Installation of xrdp is complete we will move on to install Xfce4
( Unity doesn’t seem to support xRDP in Ubuntu 14.04; although, in Ubuntu 12.04 it was supported ). That’s why we install Xfce4.
Next Step lets configure xRDP

The second file we need to edit is the startup file for xRDP, so it will start Xfce4.
The content should look like this (pay attention to the last line and ignore . /etc/X11/Xsession):
Modify the current config by adding (startxfce4) to save config press ctrl+O .
Restart xRDP
To make all these changes effective, restart xRDP as such:
Testing if we can RDP to Ubuntu now
