I looks like Remmina is trying to use the VNC protocol to connect. You need to make sure to use RDP (Remote Desktop Protocol) instead.

Hi Thomas,
I opened Remmina using RDP.
In the next step I have to select between whether to use XORG or XVNC .
If I choose XORG the screen crashes and the Remote monitor just vanishes aways.
If I choose XVNC the then I get the same error as mentioned above.

Can you try Vinagre instead?
