Bug Description

remmina 1.0.0-4ubuntu3 amd64
remmina-common 1.0.0-4ubuntu3 all
remmina-plugin-rdp 1.0.0-4ubuntu3 amd64
remmina-plugin-vnc 1.0.0-4ubuntu3 amd64

Ubuntu 14.04.5 Desktop LTS

Connection to " hostname.domain.com" gives error " unable to connect to RDP server hostname.domain.com", but doesn't appear to do DNS lookup or similar (per tcpdump).

Suggest leading zeroes need stripped or flagged to user.

Only found by copy/paste of the hostname from an email which happened to pick up the leading space. Removing leading space shows a DNS lookup in tcpdump and everything connects as expected.

Meant leading "spaces" per title... not leading "zeros"
