If you don't/can't do that (e.g. because you're running Windows or macOS on your client), connecting with X2GoClient 4.0.5.2 should still work, though you might not experience all the benefits of the new NX-Libs.

Please follow the instructions listed at [[wiki:bugs#reporting_bugs|Reporting Bugs]]. Do subscribe to the X2Go-Dev Mailing List beforehand, please (instructions on how to do that are linked within that page).
It may well be possible that your bug report gets forwarded to Arctica, so you might want to subscribe to their mailing list(s) as well.
Also, when reporting a bug, please indicate which repositories you were using, and the X2Go/NX/Arctica-related package versions you have installed.

====== X2Go at Rutgers University’s Computer Science Department ======
We looked at many different remote access programs when looking for a remote access solution for Rutgers University’s Computer Science Department. None of them compared to the ease of use, value and performance we got from X2Go.
X2Go is the recommended Remote Access software for our Linux system. It performs very well on slow network connections and has crucial features we need. The ease of configuration of client software that supports all
major OS (MacOS, Windows, Linux), low bandwidth requirement, low latency performance and ability to disconnect and reconnect previous sessions, are all crucial for our users. Although the added bonus of Audio support, local Printing and Share folder support are nice, we don’t recommend them to our users due to current instability.
The Computer Science Department at Rutgers University is 90% Linux based, but our users mostly use Windows and Macs at home. Noticing that most users have grown up with Windows and Mac graphical user interfaces (GUI), providing a remotely accessible Linux GUI is a crucial step to avoid the steep learning curve of the Linux SSH command line interface.
X2Go enables our users to access a full graphical interface of all our Linux system remotely as if they are sitting in front of computers in the labs or offices. This has reduced learning time for LinuxOS and helps our users go straight to learning and completing their class assignments.
After 18
months of using X2Go (started in Fall 2015 as documented in https://www.cs.rutgers.edu/resources/accessing-computer-science-linux-deskt…) users reported very few issues. Prior to X2Go, we used X11VNC. This was harder to install and required more support. We had to deal with over 20 issues every semester compared to 1-2 a semester with X2Go.

====== X2Go at Holland Computing Center, University of Nebraska ======
The Holland Computing Center is the central research computing provider for the University of Nebraska system. In addition to Linux-based clusters, we also provide the ability for researchers to run virtual machines via our OpenStack-based cloud resource. We provide a curated set of operating system images to use within OpenStack. For all Linux images with a graphical desktop environment, we pre-install X2Go Server. Since OpenStack uses SSH
key-based authentication, this makes accessing the instance very convenient for researchers. They simply need to install the X2Go client package on their laptop or desktop and set it to use their OpenStack SSH key. There's no need to configure VNC, etc. access, so using X2Go provides both ease of use for the researcher and lessens the administrative effort required when creating images.

====== X2Go in the Faculty of Environment, University of Leeds ======
For the last few years we have been using X2Go as a preferred method of remotely connecting to Linux systems in the Faculty, and this has been very successful.
The software is used a great deal by members of staff, as well as research and taught students, and has become very popular.
X2Go is primarily used to connect to a desktop session which works in the same way as if you were sitting at a computer on campus, and we have had people connecting in via
X2Go from all over the world, with no real performance issues.
The computer labs within the Faculty are used heavily for teaching, so the software has been very useful for taught students, who can work on their projects remotely whenever they wish.
The X2Go software has also been useful for users of non Linux desktops on campus, who need access to Linux systems for some of their work, and for members of the Faculty who travel frequently, or work remotely a lot of the time.
As X2Go is free and open software, is well maintained, and there are clients available for multiple operating systems (which all work in the same way), it seemed like the best choice for us, and so far, it has served us well.
