Hello,
I am quite new to X2Go, and really impressed by it. I'd like to
switch from opennx to X2Go, but I can't find a way to limit
clipboard sharing.Opennx, as well as other NX forks, has the options to enable clipboard sharing both ways, one-way, or disable it completely. So far I have
failed to find a setting to limit this in X2Go.I'd need clipboard sharing to work only in the client->server direction, or at least to disable it completely.
I have searched for it for quite a while, but the best I have
managed to find is a bug report http://bugs.x2go.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=258 and a mailing list question without a single reply.Is there some way to configure it? If not, is it going to be hard to write a patch that would turn this off at compilation time? I've also been thinking of using some external programs to achieve
the effect, e.g. putting X2Go inside Xephyr, or the other way round...Any hints most welcome
Many thanks, Kris
There should be two approaches...
- disable clipboard server-side for all users
- disable clipboard in X2Go Client / PyHoca-GUI on the client-side
The first is easy. Please look at /usr/bin/x2gostartagent of
x2goserver package and make clipboard configurable via
/etc/x2go/x2goserver.conf. Send a patch to our BTS [1].
The second approach is for us devs, I guess...
The workaround provided by Mike#2 is a fine approach, but not a real
solution to this problem.
