Since there is a discussion on this topic... *Launchpad <https://launchpad.net/>* would seem to be a reasonable fit for hosting the x2go project as there are over 20,000 projects hosted on Launchpad already? Launchpad provides: - *Bug tracking* <https://bugs.launchpad.net/> - *Code hosting* <https://code.launchpad.net/> using Bazaar< http://bazaar.canonical.com/> - *Code reviews* <https://help.launchpad.net/Code/Review> - Ubuntu package building and hosting <https://launchpad.net/ubuntu> - Language Translations <https://translations.launchpad.net/> - *Mailing lists* <https://help.launchpad.net/Teams/MailingLists> - *Answer tracking and FAQs* <https://answers.launchpad.net/> - Specification tracking <https://blueprints.launchpad.net/> Click here for their tour <https://launchpad.net/+tour> I think it would be very suitable for all debian related distro users.

can't start ssh tunnel / integration with existing ldap
by Martin Steigerwald 26 Jan '11

26 Jan '11

Hi! I installed X2goserver one into a Debian Squeeze VM under VMware ESX today. Since we use a LDAP server to central user management I integrated it via libpam-ldap and libnss-ldap manually. We also use NFS for home directory so I added that too. Logging into the server via SSH works as expected. But I get "can't start SSH tunnel" when trying to open a new X2go session with x2goclient. When I use a SSH key I get messages like this: Verbindung fehlgeschlagen intraws.of.teamix.net: Unable to connect: /home/ms/.x2go/ssh/socaskpass-M31562 Unable to connect: /home/ms/.x2go/ssh/socaskpass-M31562 Permission denied, please try again. Unable to connect: /home/ms/.x2go/ssh/socaskpass-M31562 Permission denied, please try again. Unable to connect: /home/ms/.x2go/ssh/socaskpass-M31562 Permission denied (publickey,password). I guess this has to do with the usage of NFS. ~/.x2go/ssh is 750 and root is squashed to nobody:nogroup. Thus it is neither the user nor the group. Since chmod 777 ~/.x2go/ssh fixes key based login for me, it seems that something of x2go server is using root privileges to access files in the home directory of the user. Could this be changed to use user rights - root can su to any ? This would work with NFS. Other questions: 1) Can X2go client be told to use an existing ssh agent which has the right identidy added? A ssh user@intraws works already without asking for the key password, thus if x2goclient uses this ssh-agent it wouldn't need to ask for the passphrase as well. 2) What steps are necessary to integrate x2go with an *existing* LDAP server? x2goldaptools depends on slapd and samba and since we use NFS with an existing LDAP server I want neither of those. LDAP authentification via PAM works already. I can login with SSH and LDAP password of a user. I thought this would be enough for x2go *when* users that use x2go are in the group x2gousers. They are. But in the local group. What additinional steps are necessary? Ciao, -- Martin Steigerwald - team(ix) GmbH - http://www.teamix.de gpg: 19E3 8D42 896F D004 08AC A0CA 1E10 C593 0399 AE90

Re: [X2go-dev] X2Go Client
by Joachim Langenbach 25 Jan '11

25 Jan '11

Good Afternoon, I've created a small patch (Version 3.01-5, don't know which is current version) to integrate the first features of the system tray stuff. Currently this features of the list are supported: * Auto minimize to tray after established the connection successfully * Open the normal client > * Auto minimize to tray after established the connection successfully (and > / or start already minimized?) > * Options right clicking on the tray icon: > * For each active connection: > * Close > * Pause > * Make directory available (In german version it is called "Ordner > freigeben") > * Start a new connection > * Open the normal client The patch includes some commented lines, they can be uncomment to display a standard message on minimize to the tray on first minimization. Therefore the system tray stuff can than be turned on by default (which is propably wanted by most users). Right now, system tray is deactivated and must be enabled at the ConfigDialog. Regards, Joachim Langenbach

x2go not working on ubuntu 10.10
by brian mullan 25 Jan '11

25 Jan '11

As mentioened in a separate email I have EC2 Ubuntu 10.10 servers running x2go and they work fine. I also provided you my phone number. I'm not sure what you are doing wrong or are not doing but what you are trying to do is fairly easy. Send me an email with the AMI # you are using for the EC2 image. I'll take that AMI, start an instance, install x2go server on it and try to log into it myself.

My interest - and skill - is in packaging for Debian. I have no special interest in x2go development itself, only in packaging resulting public and Free code for Debian.

As soon as we have a mailinglist for the Debian packaging effort up, our Debian packaging discussions will take place there - fully transparent as here. Kind regards, - Jonas P.S.

VcXsrv on WinXP (rdesktop) in multiwindow mode
by Mike Gabriel 24 Jan '11

24 Jan '11

Hi John, Phil and Alex, dear list, I am still having serious problems getting VcXsrv (1.9.3.0) started in multiwindow mode and run sessions of X2go session type ,,D'' (desktop) with it. My cmd line is: vcxsrv.exe :40 -clipboard -multiwindow -nowinkill -notrayicon On session start the X2GO start up x2goagent window appears, but before any graphical elements (apart from the X2GO slogan) are drawn, VcXsrv crashes. Does anyone have an idea how to circumvent this?

x2go thin client session configuratino
by Neil W. Hunt 23 Jan '11

23 Jan '11

Hello, I have setup the x2go thin client environment. However, I'm having a few issues: 1. Sometimes the netboot process stops at the terminal login prompt and doesn't boot all the way into the x2goclient. How is the auto-login happening when it DOES work? Why would it be stopping sometimes at the login prompt and other times booting straight into the desktop client? Is the process run by a particular user? 2. When it is booting up into the fullscreen x2go client, anytime I try to make a session, it doesn't save the changes I make, thus I obviously can't login to a particular server. I put a video of the problem at http://10addyrd.com/x2gotc.mov 3. Is there a way to prepopulate a session for users? Where is the .x2goclient/sessions file stored that is used by x2goclient in a thin client setup?

x2go-users vs. x2go-dev list
by Mike Gabriel 21 Jan '11

21 Jan '11

Dear list, I notice that some of the recent discussions on X2go-dev are actually X2go-user issues. For these issues we have set up the mailing list: x2go-users(a)lists.berlios.de I also have sent some of the PyHoca-GUI announcement mails to x2go-dev which might be more appropriate on the x2go-announcement list, though Python X2go is still in alpha state and the mails are mainly meant as calls for testers. However, make sure to stay also tuned with announcements: x2go-announcement(a)lists.berlios.de Maybe (a) people on X2go-dev can make sure to be subscribed to X2go-user and X2go-announcement (if they are interested in these issues), so that people do not feel that the X2go geaks are only listening on x2go-dev (b) we all become more disciplined when choosing a channel of communication. I quite fancy the idea to get away from spamming the X2go-dev list with every topic available. Please keep this channel free for development and development-related security issues. For installation problems and other issues that occur while using X2go please use the X2go user list. I personally will ignore user issues posted to X2go-dev in the future, but will try to contribute as best as possible to solutions on X2go-user.
