Remote Desktop on second monitor

I have a dual monitor (two 1600x1200 monitors) setup on my Ubuntu machine, and regularly have to connect to Windows machines with rdesktop. I would like the remote desktop to be full-screen on my second monitor, keeping my primary monitor open for other tasks. Here is the magic incantation to move the remote desktop to my second monitor:


/usr/bin/rdesktop -D -g 1600x1200+1600x0 somemachinename.dhcp

The '-D' parameter hides window manager decorations, allowing me to use the whole screen for the remote desktop, and '-g' specifies the + of the desktop.

And the result ...
