I would love to see mimebox included in x2goclient. I know we had planned to write a "multimedia player" to automatically redirect to mimebox similar to the way printing works<snip>
If this ever happens, please make sure that it's a server-side
feature that can be turned on or off e.g. by group membership or by
some sort of config file option, preferably separate from printing.There is a degree of security involved here - if it's too easy for a
user to pass files between host and client, or if this even happens
automatically behind the user's back, bad (TM) things can happen.I prefer it the way that a user has to willingly and knowingly
decide that a file is to be transferred between host and client.While I do see that there are usage scenarios where security isn't
an issue and such a mimebox/multimedia player thing might be neat,
please leave the decision to the server administrator and not the
user.
The MIME box is also based on SSHFS, so you need fuse group membership
to use it. If you do not want file transfer between server and client,
leave the fuse group empty.
