I have a guess as to the possible reason for the behavior of the thinclient: the filesystem is of course read-only (nfs-shared root), so no generated ssh private key, needed for the autologin, can be placed there. If this is indeed the reason, then the fact that it just shows a passphrase dialog box is very confusing and this behaviour should be changed.
Although my guess could be entirely wrong.

Hi Mike,

Having setup a thinclient environment with x2gothinclient the bug we were
talking about during our development sprint in march, where a dialog box
appears, asking for a passphrase for a key, when being auto-logged-in over
a broker. Pressing cancel allows me to be logged in anyway. We suspected it
might be the way my machine is setup, but on the newly created
thinclient-environment I now have, it also happens. Only on this setup,
pressing cancel does not help. The dialog box just reappears. This means
that currently, our thinclients can't login using a broker with auto-login.
Any idea how to debug this problem?

I will cross-check with Alex first (he might know a solution) and then (if not) take a closer look at the x2goclient code.

Greets,
Mike
