I have attached a slightly modified x2gostartagent script and patch  
file that document the changes to this mail.

Please copy the x2gostartagent script to /usr/bin/x2gostartagent on  
the server and report back if the performed modification fixes your  
25-user-issue.

@Devs: I suspect we have to query x2gogetport 3x times during one run  
of x2gostartagent to make sure that more-than-one instances of  
x2gostartagent (run by different users at the very same time, a  
typical class room situation) do not interfere with each other. This  
probably has to happen in x2goresume-session, as well.

I am not 100% sure if the modified x2gostartagent reduces the reported  
issue to zero, but my guess is that the reported issue should go down  
in occurrence tremendously.

Please test with your setup and give feedback.

Greets+thanks,
Mike
