from wikipedia it is not clear whether there are any legit RDP servers for Linux. Most of what it talks about seems to be alternative / non Microsoft clients intended to communicate with built-in Windows RDP server.

So did anybody out there deal with credible RDP server for Linux? Or are people just happy enough with VNC and TeamViewer for this purpose?

Have you tried xrdp?

Based on the work of FreeRDP and rdesktop, xrdp uses the remote desktop protocol to present a GUI to the user.

The goal of this project is to provide a fully functional Linux terminal server, capable of accepting connections from rdesktop, freerdp, and Microsoft's own terminal server / remote desktop clients.

Unlike Windows NT/2000/2003/2008/2012 server, xrdp will not display a Windows desktop but an X window desktop to the user.

Xrdp uses Xvnc or X11rdp to manage the X session.

It is still early in development, but is in a functional state.
