[X2Go-User] Can sessions of one user on different hosts collide?

Dear list,
On four debian wheezy machines I have X2Go server running without any problems
since several weeks. There are about twenty users regularly connecting from
their personal windows PCs. Usually at any given time on every server there
are a handful of active/paused sessions running concurrently. The home
directories are exported via NFS from a file server and shared among the X2Go
servers.
Today, one user ('abbasi') told me, that since one or two weeks, he can only
have one active connection to two of the servers (named 'lucas' and 'perrin')
at a time, while before he could have active connections to both of them in
parallel. Let me demonstrate an example with the error messages he gets. An
extract of his session logs I put at the end of this mail.
Initially the user has one (LXDE) session running on both, 'lucas' and
'perrin', but only the connection to 'perrin' is open (at 17:35).
17:36 User resumes session on 'lucas', which lets the 'perrin' connection
close.
17:38 User resumes session on 'perrin'. The x2go client maintaining the
connection to 'lucas' yields an error message labeled 'X2Go - 50': "No
response received from the remote server. Do you want to terminate the current
session? (Yes/No)" With no answer given, a second error message pops up some
seconds later: "The connection with the remote server was shut down. Please
check the state of your network connection. (OK)".
Later on the user terminated LXDE on 'perrin' and logged in again, again
loosing the connection to 'lucas'. Output of x2golistsessions_root is:
root at perrin:~# x2golistsessions_root |grep abbasi
23451|abbasi-50-1407426323_stDLXDE_dp32|50|perrin|S|2014-08-07T17:45:24|
ab801814ece01b66cf5b9095ef08d537|134.99.208.12|30001|30002|
2014-08-07T17:50:07|abbasi|10878|30003|
root at lucas:/tmp# x2golistsessions_root |grep abbasi
31315|abbasi-50-1401721407_stDLXDE_dp32|50|lucas|S|2014-06-02T17:03:27|
2e6c06bec50eb7f89b1d165590a0a54d|134.99.208.12|30001|30002|
2014-08-07T17:45:27|abbasi|5715851|30003|
What got my attention is, the sessions on both servers coincidentally having
the same <port> (50), <gr_port> (30001) and <snd_port> (30002). Could this
lead to confusion for the 'peer proxy' mentioned in the 'Error:' line in the
'lucas'-log?
Looking forward to any suggestion, how to improve this situation. Thanks in
advance!
Holger
