A couple of simple questions
by kht-lists 30 Oct '20

30 Oct '20

Recently I installed x2goserver on an Ubuntu Mate 20.04 machine and x2goclient on my CentOS 7 workstation. I configured the session with "[X] Try auto login (via SSH Agend ot default SSH key)" as I have an SSH key installed on the remote machine. It connects fine over my LAN and I find the CPU utilization on the remote machine much lower than with x11vnc which I had been using. Her are my client related questions... 1) What is the CORRECT way to disconnect from the remote machine and leave the remote session (and the programs on it) running? The goal being to be able to check back later on the status of the work which the remote machine is performing. 2) How does one connect to more than one remote machine? I have only been able to do this by loading an additional x2goclient for the next remote machine. This seems to waste a lot of real estate. I explained my adventures in detail on linuxquestions.org but did not receive any advice. https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-software-2/x2go-how-to-disco… Thanks, Ken I don't have a Swiss bank account but I do have a Swiss email address :-) Sent with [ProtonMail](https://protonmail.com) Secure Email.

Remote VM, accessed via X2GO, receiving input signals over and over again. How to fix this?
by CESAR MURILO DA SILVA JUNIOR 27 Oct '20

"Hardware" related question running x2go in LXC container
by webman＠manfbraun.de 25 Oct '20

25 Oct '20

Hello! I am new to x2go and I try to use x2go server hosted inside a LXC container, which is currently a privileged container. My use is from windows (x2go client). The host and the container are running debian 10. This is basically running. I would be happy to get help with this questions: - how to find, which video driver is in use and what options do I have to NOT access the hosts video and using framebuffer or something like this? - is there something like a virtual sound card? Even the host does not have one and redirecting sound from browser would no really require one, but I do net get sound (I see a pulseaudio running on the windows side)? - the clipboard stops often working and if one uses another session in a second x2go-client, only the last started one will work - is there a trick to restart it and to make it work for two ore more x2go sessions? Any help would be great! Best regards, Manfred

Main window flash at startup with --hide
by Travis Levin 22 Oct '20

22 Oct '20

When I use the --hide option at the command line, I still see a brief flash of the main window. Is it possible to hide this completely? If not through a command line or registry option, then can the code be modified to prevent this? Thanks, Travis Levin Cell: 469-408-0625

Methods to speed up start-up and initial handshake
by Travis Levin 21 Oct '20

21 Oct '20

Hello, I have been very impressed with the capabilities of the x2go platform. I would like to optimize the time it takes to startup a session (currently about 18 seconds). Are there settings I should look at to ensure I am getting the minimum startup time? Thanks, Travis Levin

Black Screen
by Benjamin Colart 21 Oct '20

21 Oct '20

Hello, I successfully installed X2GO and wanted to use it with a mounted /home on CIFS / AD server. The security part (krb, SSSD) is working well, but after the authentication, I have 2 secondes the X2GO windows and the session close itself. If I unmount the /home from the CIFS server, the session is working properly. That setup is working with FastX, but I prefer using X2GO (better perfs and customizations). Someone has an idea? 😊 [cid:image001.png@01D6A78A.EF9B34E0]<http://www.e-peas.com/> Benjamin COLART – IT Manager T:+32 10 77 12 30 - M:+32 474 944 904 Rue Fond Cattelain 1 bte 4 1435 Mont-Saint-Guibert - Belgium This message contains information that may be privileged or confidential and is the property of E-PEAS company.

Have x2go use Windows 10 default ssh-agent
by Johannes Töger 20 Oct '20

20 Oct '20

Hi, Windows 10 comes with an "OpenSSH Authentication Agent" that manages SSH keys. Once added, the SSH keys are kept in the Windows 10 Credential Storage and encrypted/decrypted with the user login. Documentation here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/administration/openssh/open… I was able to use this for ssh in WSL using this github repo: https://github.com/bahamas10/windows-bash-ssh-agent Is it possible to have the Windows x2go client talk to the Windows 10 ssh-agent? I was able to do it using Pageant, but that is less convenient/integrated IMO. By the way: Thanks for a great software package! - Johannes Töger Associate Senior Lecturer Cardiac MR Group Department of Clinical Sciences Lund, Clinical Physiology Lund University, Sweden
