[X2Go-User] Reconnect to session

Hi --

I'm trying to reconnect to an existing session using the
x2goclient GUI, or using the pyhoca-cli command line.
This does not work.  I'm also not able to suspend a running
session.

When I use x2goclient to re-connect to a server, the old session is listed
as running.  This is also displayed by the CLI:

$ pyhoca-cli -L --server qc

When I try to suspend it using the CLI, I'm told that this works, but
in fact, it does not:

At another time, when I connected to a server using x2goclient, it created
a new session, rather than re-connecting to the suspended session which was
running.  When I tried to connect to the suspended session, nothing happened.
The GUI went blank and no X screen was displayed.

Questions:

1 -- How can I connect to a session which is marked as running?

2 -- How can I suspend a session which is running?

3 -- How can I connect to a suspended session on a server?

4 -- How can I specify the session to connect to using the pyhoca-cli CLI?


Thanks!
