Hi,

Got the same issue with 4.0.5.2, try updating to 4.1.0.0 or newer, there had been many changes on the SSH side which should fix your problem.

Objet: [X2Go-User] Shared directory from Windows client does not mount 


I'm having several X2go installations, on several servers and for several users/clients. 





The problem is that shared directory mounting does not *usually* work on those computers, which have cygwin installed before installing X2go client. For some servers, it works even on those. I can't find out any rule there, as from some client computer, connections to some X2go servers work fine and on some X2go servers, the shared directory does not mount. Anyway, on those computers, which doesn't have cygwin installed, the shared directory mount seems to always work. 


The only clue I have found is that on /var/log/syslog on the server, there are following lines: 
---8<---8<--- 
/usr/bin/x2gomountdirs[23874]: WARNING: mounting of /cygdrive/C/Users/xxx/X2GO_S~1 failed 
---8<---8<--- 


I have tried to follow hints on some pages, which recommend decreasing permissions on client computer's .x2go/etc directory, but no help. 


The current installation is: 
Client: Windows 10 64bit Professional (does not matter, some of installations are Windows 7) 
X2go client version 4.0.5.2 


Server: Ubuntu 16.04 (does not matter - some of servers are 16.10) 
X2go server version 4.0.1.20-0~1125~ubuntu16.04.01 
The server was installed from X2go's PPA source. 


Thanks, 
Kalle
