<snip> I wonder if a hierarchical approach is in order as many of the settings may be completely the same for all users and it would be desirable to centrally manage them. The KDE KIOSK is a good model where settings can be set centrally, environment variables can be substituted, settings can be locked, but, if they are not locked, they can be overridden locally with the most local version taking priority. Just a thought. I share Stefan's pain :) - John
Then you will be happy to learn that Alex will soon start working on a paid-for (as in paid-by-me) extension to the X2Go client:
Step one, the short-term goal, will be the release of a client that allows for a seperate sessions file location.
Step two will be a "published application" mode similar to what you may or may not know from Citrix MetaFrame/Presentation Manager/whatever-their-nom-de-jour-is: A list of applications that will be defined on the server and presented to the user in drop-down-box style after logging in and right-clicking the X2Go-icon in the task bar.
Of course, feel free to join in with some extra cash - I'm sure Alex won't say no. ;-)
