Alright, I reverified this today.
So I go to Port Management in Vbox and select 17022 -> 22. I connect to ssh via port 17022 and putty successfully connects for verification that this works. I then start up x2go-client and enter (under session management -> session preferences) host: 127.0.0.2, port: 17022, session type:XFCE. I then connect, enter my pw and wait. I get an error window saying "Timeout connecting to 127.0.0.2" with title "Can not connect to 127.0.0.2:22" (wrong port here!)
I then change the port forward in Vbox and in x2go-client to 22 and now I can connect.
So again: VBox is representing the server here and I am manipulating the session profile, I am not sure where those global preferences that you are talking about are.
Best, Matthias

Hi Matthias,

I want to use x2go over port 17022. For testing I therefore set Virtualbox to forward 17022 -> 22 and entered 17022 as ssh port in the x2goclient's config. After a while, a connection timeout window appears detailing that 127.0.0.2:22 could not be reached. Having VBox forward 22 -> 22 and entering 22 in x2goclient resolved this.
Best, Matthias
I am using Win7 64bit Host, Vbox 4.2.12, Xubuntu 12.10 guest matthias@matthias-VirtualBox:~$ uname -a Linux matthias-VirtualBox 3.5.0-27-generic #46-Ubuntu SMP Mon Mar 25 19:58:17 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
thanks for your bug report.
Please give us some feedback on the questions below:
o do you manipulate the SSH port in the global X2Go Client configuration (Windows Registry folder ,,settings'')? o or do you manipulate the SSH port in the session profile? o (I presume a yes for first of the two questions above)
Neither am I getting clean the setup you have.
o is the VBox VM your X2Go Server? o or your X2Go Client?
I hope to get your problem fixed with the next X2Go Client release, so a quick response is appreciated.
Mike
