The picture contained an error message from the rdesktop client.

You problem is most probably that windows XP has builtin support for DRP
and has already opened a liustener on 127.0.0.1:3389 so instead of
connecting to the remote machine you are in fact connecting to your
local machine and, as the error message states, you are already logged
in.

This problem can be solved by moving your listener to another port, or
to 127.0.0.2 and then specify that new location to the rdesktop client.
