Bug Description

xrdp installs links system certificate/private key but user xrdp can't read the key

TLS should be enabled by default xrdp but the server will still run and allow insecure connections

/etc/xrdp/key.pem -> /etc/ssl/private/ssl-cert-snakeoil.key
-rw-r----- 1 root ssl-cert 1708 Dec 11 14:52 /etc/ssl/private/ssl-cert-snakeoil.key

works if user xrdp belongs to group ssl-cert
grep xrdp /etc/group
ssl-cert:x:121:xrdp
xrdp:x:122:

xrd.ini should have the cert/key configured
certificate=/etc/xrdp/cert.pem
key_file=/etc/xrdp/key.pem

summary: - xrdp needs to be in ssl-cert group to read server priate key
+ xrdp needs to be in ssl-cert group to read server private key
