You can find logs for RDP client in event viewer : "Application and Services Logs"\Microsoft\Windows\TerminalServices-ClientActiveXCore. Here's what is says for me :

1. The client has established a multi-transport connection to the server.

2. RDPClient_SSL: An error was encountered when transitioning from TsSslStateDisconnected to TsSslStateDisconnected in response to TsSslEventInvalidState (error code 0x8000FFFF).

3. RDP ClientActiveX has been disconnected (Reason= 2)

reason 2 is session closed by client.

My paranoia tells me that microsoft went back and patched the image to prevent people from using RDP with docker, but who knows, maybe we're just missing something obvious.
