Package: x2goclient Version: 4.0.3.2 Tags: build-win32
When the following conditions are met:
- You are using X2Go Client for Windows
- You are using Kerberos 5 (GSSAPI) authentication
- Your server-side home directory is at a path other than /home/$USER
Upon connecting to an X2Go server, whether you have any folders shared or not, you receive an error like: Connection failed pscp: unable to open /home/mike/.x2go/ssh/key.dK7060: no such file or directory ("Connection failed" is bolded)
Furthermore, shared folders are not actually shared.
If you attempt to share a folder after connecting, you receive the same error message.
This bug appears to be a limitation of when Kerberos (GSSAPI) authentication was originally introduced in x2goclient 4.0.1.2. It was introduced in commit a77d761d on 2013-12-10.
I will push a commit that fixes this bug. However, it overrides all paths like "~user" with "~". In other words, it assumes that SshProcess::start_cp() will never be used to upload a file to another user's home dir, unless that other user's home dir is specified absolute.
As a side note, this bug is present under the default configuration of SAMBA's winbind, which does support kerberos authentication. By default, smb.conf has set: template homedir = /home/%D/%U Where %D is the domain name, and %U is the username.
