Hi Alex,

Unfortunately, I can not reproduce some bugs reported of users on this mailing list - [...] Issues with failed connection on Win7-64
[...] As example, one of our
customers found out, that x2go client on Win7 can not connect to server if Avast antivirus is installed.
I'm one of the users that have reported problems with x2goclient (newer than 3.01-13) on Win 7 x64 and it turned out that the problem was caused by Symantec Endpoint Protection (SEP). When I uninstalled SEP, x2goclient started working. Seems like antivirus (and perhaps firewall) software is the first thing to uninstall (not just disable, really uninstall) when troubleshooting x2goclient on Windows.
Cheers, Daniel
Hallo Daniel,
Yes, it looks like some antiviral software blocking tcp/ip connections between processes. X2go can work correctly even with absolute pnaroidalic configured windows firewall, because no ports, which should be accessed from network are opened on client. But it steel need tcp/ip connections between processes on system. For example, between nxproxy and X-server. I can not explain why various antiviral software doing this, but I can imagine, that there are although other software except X2Go, that couldn't be running because of such antiviruses.
Question to list: Is there a some antiviral software, which can be used with x2go client?
