Package: x2goclient Version: 4.0.4.0
Hi,
I'm not sure if this is a server-side or client-side bug but each new user who tries to connect to my X2Go server initially receives the following error message: "Check your GSSAPI configuration or choose another authentication method." I have noticed that this error disappears as soon as a user establishes his first SSH connection to my X2Go server (using PuTTY).
Regards, Lukas

Please try upgrading to 4.0.5.0.
I have fixed a few bugs regarding GSSAPI/Kerberos in that version - maybe that already solves your problem.

Additionally, this might not be a bug at all.
X2Go Client expects a valid Kerberos ticket to be available. Typically, Windows users that use Kerberos already get a ticket at login time via AD or the like.
If that is not true for your setup, you will have to request a new ticket manually the first time after login - and are responsible to also keep it from expiring (e.g., via periodically requesting a new ticket or requesting a renewable ticket and running the renew command every now and then.)
