Hello x2go people :)
i have a server running Ubuntu 11.10 with an x2goserver
installation, version 3.0.99.10-0~434~oneiric1, and it is running
well and stable.We had some strange problems, though. We contacted a school, who
would help us test the server under daily use, and made some test
users for them, called "test-*their name*". When they, and i, tried
to log into those users, the client would freeze, no error message
or anything. On the server, the x2goagent would run amok, soaking up
CPU power. The problem seems to occur only on users with dashes in
their names.Can anyone replicate this? it is quite strange
The issue has been addressed in the server code with Git commit: http://code.x2go.org/gitweb?p=x2goserver.git;a=commitdiff;h=305f7e897420aa9b...
However, x2goclient as well as python-x2go have to become aware of "-"
in usernames.
The patch is fully compliant with older x2goclient implementations.
However, there is still a patch needed for x2goclient and python-x2go.
With python-x2go (pyhoca-gui) the session startup already works. Just
tested with x2goclient, as well, which worked out fine, as well.
However, all features and add-ons for/of X2Go have to be tested
against this new "-"-character-in-user-demands.
The applied patch only addresses X2Go servers running with the SQLite
DB backend (default installation). For PostgreSQL DB backend X2Go
servers, the issue has to be investigated still.
Christoffer! Your (and others) turn! (Debian packages are already
available, Ubuntu packages will come over night, test from the nightly
repositories, please)
