X2Go Client for Windows 4.0.3.1-20141214 is now available
by Michael DePaulo 14 Dec '14

14 Dec '14

Hi Windows users, I just released the 1st Windows build of 4.0.3.1, 4.0.3.1-20141214 (today's date = 2014-12-14). http://code.x2go.org/releases/binary-win32/x2goclient/releases/4.0.3.1-2014… http://wiki.x2go.org/doku.php/doc:release-notes-mswin:x2goclient-4.0.3.1 Little has changed in terms of the X2Go Client code for 4.0.3.1: http://lists.x2go.org/pipermail/x2go-announcements/2014/000226.html And due to me being busy, none of the 3rd-party dependencies (e.g., VcXsrv) have been updated yet. -Mike#2

cannot send ctrl+s key combo
by George David 12 Dec '14

12 Dec '14

I use my Mac at home to connect to my linux box at work using xfce. I use emacs and Eclipse with emacs key mappings and using CTRL+S comes up quite often. Is CTRL+S a key combo that x2go uses or filters out?

x2goserver Active Directory User Login Issue
by Jason Scalia 11 Dec '14

11 Dec '14

Hello, I am currently running x2goserver on a RHEL 6.6 x64 instance. I am able to login with a local user fine, but receive an "access denied" message when I try to use an Active Directory authenticated user. I confirmed on the RHEL host that I can SSH in with the AD creds for the user, I can also login with a local user using x2goclient without issue. I have tried the x2goclient on OS X 10.9.5, Windows Server 2012 x64, Windows 7 x64, and even tried from the RHEL 6.6 x64 server instance with no luck. I have x2goserver set to loglevel=debug. There are no logs populated that I can see in the user's homedir for the session. If someone can point me in the right direction perhaps regarding this issue it would be greatly appreciated, from googling and checking the archives it looks like this has been done successfully, but I am at a loss here. Any and all help is appreciated. Logs are below. /var/log/secure: Dec 11 11:02:17 x2g5-dpmgmt-smq sshd[14384]: debug1: rexec start in 5 out 5 newsock 5 pipe 7 sock 8 Dec 11 11:02:17 x2g5-dpmgmt-smq sshd[14384]: debug1: inetd sockets after dupping: 3, 3 Dec 11 11:02:17 x2g5-dpmgmt-smq sshd[14384]: Connection from $clientip port 62850 Dec 11 11:02:17 x2g5-dpmgmt-smq sshd[14384]: debug1: Client protocol version 2.0; client software version libssh-0.6.3 Dec 11 11:02:17 x2g5-dpmgmt-smq sshd[14384]: debug1: no match: libssh-0.6.3 Dec 11 11:02:17 x2g5-dpmgmt-smq sshd[14384]: debug1: Enabling compatibility mode for protocol 2.0 Dec 11 11:02:17 x2g5-dpmgmt-smq sshd[14384]: debug1: Local version string SSH-2.0-OpenSSH_5.3 Dec 11 11:02:17 x2g5-dpmgmt-smq sshd[14385]: debug1: permanently_set_uid: 74/74 Dec 11 11:02:17 x2g5-dpmgmt-smq sshd[14385]: debug1: list_hostkey_types: ssh-rsa,ssh-dss Dec 11 11:02:17 x2g5-dpmgmt-smq sshd[14385]: debug1: SSH2_MSG_KEXINIT sent Dec 11 11:02:17 x2g5-dpmgmt-smq sshd[14385]: debug1: SSH2_MSG_KEXINIT received Dec 11 11:02:17 x2g5-dpmgmt-smq sshd[14385]: debug1: kex: client->server aes256-ctr hmac-sha1 none Dec 11 11:02:17 x2g5-dpmgmt-smq sshd[14385]: debug1: kex: server->client aes256-ctr hmac-sha1 none Dec 11 11:02:17 x2g5-dpmgmt-smq sshd[14385]: debug1: expecting SSH2_MSG_KEXDH_INIT Dec 11 11:02:17 x2g5-dpmgmt-smq sshd[14385]: debug1: SSH2_MSG_NEWKEYS sent Dec 11 11:02:17 x2g5-dpmgmt-smq sshd[14385]: debug1: expecting SSH2_MSG_NEWKEYS Dec 11 11:02:17 x2g5-dpmgmt-smq sshd[14385]: debug1: SSH2_MSG_NEWKEYS received Dec 11 11:02:17 x2g5-dpmgmt-smq sshd[14385]: debug1: KEX done Dec 11 11:02:18 x2g5-dpmgmt-smq sshd[14385]: debug1: userauth-request for user mydomain\\jscalia service ssh-connection method none Dec 11 11:02:18 x2g5-dpmgmt-smq sshd[14385]: debug1: attempt 0 failures 0 Dec 11 11:02:18 x2g5-dpmgmt-smq sshd[14384]: debug1: PAM: initializing for "mydomain\\jscalia" Dec 11 11:02:18 x2g5-dpmgmt-smq sshd[14385]: debug1: userauth-request for user mydomain\\jscalia service ssh-connection method keyboard-interactive Dec 11 11:02:18 x2g5-dpmgmt-smq sshd[14385]: debug1: attempt 1 failures 0 Dec 11 11:02:18 x2g5-dpmgmt-smq sshd[14385]: debug1: keyboard-interactive devs Dec 11 11:02:18 x2g5-dpmgmt-smq sshd[14385]: debug1: auth2_challenge: user=mydomain\\jscalia devs= Dec 11 11:02:18 x2g5-dpmgmt-smq sshd[14385]: debug1: kbdint_alloc: devices 'pam' Dec 11 11:02:18 x2g5-dpmgmt-smq sshd[14385]: debug1: auth2_challenge_start: trying authentication method 'pam' Dec 11 11:02:18 x2g5-dpmgmt-smq sshd[14384]: debug1: PAM: setting PAM_RHOST to "$client_hostname" Dec 11 11:02:18 x2g5-dpmgmt-smq sshd[14384]: debug1: PAM: setting PAM_TTY to "ssh" Dec 11 11:02:18 x2g5-dpmgmt-smq sshd[14385]: Postponed keyboard-interactive for mydomain\\jscalia from $clientip port 62850 ssh2 Dec 11 11:02:18 x2g5-dpmgmt-smq sshd[14385]: Received disconnect from $clientip: 11: Bye Bye Dec 11 11:02:18 x2g5-dpmgmt-smq sshd[14385]: debug1: do_cleanup Dec 11 11:02:18 x2g5-dpmgmt-smq sshd[14384]: debug1: do_cleanup Dec 11 11:02:18 x2g5-dpmgmt-smq sshd[14384]: debug1: PAM: cleanup /var/log/messages has no entries.

Pulseaudio doesn't start on Win7
by Ralf 09 Dec '14

09 Dec '14

Hello list, greetings! I have the following setup runing: A docker-container providing a rudimental desktop (fluxbox on debian) A Win7PC which gets the desktop using x2Go. All is working as expected but the pulseaudio server on the win7-client doesn't start automatically. If I use an external pulseaudio.exe with an lightly modified default.pa the pulseaudio-sever starts. After that "trick" I have to edit .pulse-client.conf in my docker-container for sending audio to my win7-pulseserver and it will work. The drawback is: I cannot use the ssh-tunnel from x2go for the audio ... it is not established cause of the missing port of the not startet "internal" pulseserver. Is there a chance to give an modified default.pa to the "internal" pulseaudio-server of the x2go-client or even better: is it possible to use an "external" pulseaudio.exe with the x2go-client? The next "problem" for an automated workaround (starting pulseaudio with script prior to the x2go-client) is, that the x2go-client seems to use port 4714 for untunneled connections. Does someone now the parameter for changing the pulseaudio-serverport from 4713 to 4714 for the pulse-audio-windows-version 1.1? This is the most "dirty" hack ... but should do the work in this case. The other way round is of course although possible: change the port the x2go-client expects his "internal" server. This way the .pulse-client.conf in the docker-desktop would be build correct for this szenario. Maye someone point me the direction? Uhhh ... its long ago I have written text in english Have a nice day!!

Windows 8.1 - shortcuts being caught by windows
by Glen Winters 03 Dec '14

03 Dec '14

Hello, I'm brand new to using x2go today. I'm connecting from Windows 8.1 to Ubuntu 14.04 and using the openbox session. Whenever I hit the windows key, the start menu in Windows pops up. It seems that my remote session is not receiving the key or Windows is getting it first. I tried the following settings for the X-Server written in a blog post: -rootless -notrayicon -clipboard -keyhook Using keyhook would supposedly send all keystrokes to the sesssion unless the mouse was outside the session window. That doesn't seem to help at all. Any suggestions for what to try? Thanks, Glen

Fwd: Fwd: Instant-Debian image for thin-clients
by Andreas Gläser 30 Nov '14

30 Nov '14

Hi, all, I tried out your software today on Debian/testing. See my report there: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=761398 You can also try out my Debian-Image for thinclients, see below: -------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: Instant-Debian image for thin-clients Date: Thu, 09 Oct 2014 07:43:53 +0200 From: Andreas Gläser <andreas.glaeser(a)vodafone.de> To: Image-download-link: https://storage.demo.synnefo.org/public/YTXni05cyUpEHf9oUE5dw5 Cucumber-flavoured instant Linux, just add water ... ==================================================== This is the legacy version of my instant-wheezy image. It should be workable for most 32-bit PCs, most thin-clients with or without PAE, and it also should work with any NIC, or in virtual machines. The most common criticism about Debian stable is the outdated software, so backported packages were pinned to be preferred over otherwise stable versions, and the default 3.2-kernel was removed. Minimum hardware requirements are: 256 MB RAM, 512 MB recommended, 400 MHz i486-CPU, 16 GB CompactFlash or bootable USB2. Instructions: -Extract the image, then dd it on CompactFlash-card or onto USB2-memory-stick: $ unxz instant-wheezy-32-de-bpo.img.xz $ dd if=instant-wheezy-32-de-bpo.img of=/dev/sdx -in order to use Privoxy from localhost, basic configuration is required, example files are provided. -then configure the browser to use localhost on port 8118 as proxy for both HTTP and HTTPS. -when using it as web-proxy from the LAN, typically a static IP has to be set for the server and the listen-address accordingly. instant-wheezy-32-de-bpo.img.xz =============================== md5sum: 4a41fa6c59153aa0fa944791b52bd38c sha256sum: 9e68dbb39d81cca6c283398cde505bcde8809f5be7431276f427ee4b0c08bd69 file size: 1974881212 bytes uncompresed: 15931539456 bytes root-pw: wheezy user-pw: user =============================== Included Packages: linux-image-3.16-0.bpo.2-486 linux-image-3.16-0.bpo.2-686-pae iceweasel release 31.1 task-xfce-desktop task-lxde-desktop liferea abiword gnumeric streamtuner2 streamripper audacious vlc rhythmbox icedove esr enigmail iceowl-extension claws-mail claws-mail-spam-report claws-mail-pgpmime claws-mail-pgpinline gnupg2 seahorse privoxy xul-ext-adblock-plus iceweasel-adblock-plus midori epiphany-browser browser-plugin-vlc hardinfo gparted pidgin pidgin-microblog transmission remmina imagemagick TODO: -make metapackage for easier setup -make 64-bit version

Hi Dears, I'm developing X2GO client to run it on my OTC clients and as a condition to do that the X2GO package should be installed to a specific directory to make it portable which mean that all the dependences that the package needs must be installed on that directory. i tried to install it using the apt-get command but it asks for dependances then i tried the source code but i failed to compile it so any suggestions please on how to do that and i will be thankful to u... thanks in advance.

Sound Issues (One Client)
by senrabdet＠aol.com 28 Nov '14

28 Nov '14

Hi All: I am having trouble with x2go audio on a windows client (win pro 32 bit; x2go 4.0.2.1, though have tried 3.1 as well; x2go server is on Wheezy with Mate). Initially, I thought an upgrade server side was the problem but I can get the sound to work on two other windows clients connected to the same server (same ssh etc), so I'm inclined at the moment to think it's this particular client machine. I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling x2go and copying the .pulse-cookie from a working machine into various folders on the problem one without success. FYI can open the sound control to make sure the levels are up, and see on the working machines that it finds a sound card but doesn't do so on the problem client. Any suggestions? Is this the pulse audio bug I've read about on the net? Am wondering too if this could be some sort of driver issue on the laptop in question, though the sound works on the native OS (as opposed to the x2go connection). I use x2go a lot, so I figure this is worth figuring out as having run into it once, it may happen again. Thanks!

Folder sharing does not work with x2goclient
by Emanuele Rocca 27 Nov '14

27 Nov '14

Hi list, While folder sharing works fine using pyhoca-cli, it does not work at all with x2goclient.

XFCE black desktop when connecting from Windows 8.1
by David Zafra [KLO] 21 Nov '14

21 Nov '14

Hi everybody I can connect fairly well to my x2go server from Windows XP, Windows 7 and Ubuntu clients. But when I connect from Windows 8.1 64 bits I see a black desktop. I do see menu bars and they work fine, but I can't do anything with desktop elements because it's all black as I said. Right click over desktop doesn't work. I have using the following scenario: * Ubuntu 14.04 server * XFCE * x2goclient version 4.0.3.0-20141021 I've tried using Xming as X server, but it doesn't fix my problem. Any help will be very appreciate. -- *David Zafra Gómez* KLO Ingeniería Informática ~~--.. www.klo.es <http://www.klo.es/> ..--~~ Aviso Legal: De acuerdo con la Ley 15/1999 (LOPD), usted tiene derecho al acceso, rectificación y cancelación de sus datos personales informados en el fichero del que es titular KLO.

CentOS7/EPEL package?
by Les Mikesell 20 Nov '14

20 Nov '14

Is something wrong with the x2goserver-4.0.1.18-1.el7.x86_64 package in EPEL. The CentOS7 hosts that worked with the previous version (w/MATE desktop) now just open a black window on the client that closes almost instantly. On one system I upgraded only the x2goserver package to make sure it wasn't some other update causing the problem. -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell(a)gmail.com

Unable to start session...

19 Nov '14

I have 2 RHEL 6 systems that I want to access using X2Go from my Mac. From the Mac, I can ssh to both systems without any problem. I can open an X2Go session to one machine but not to the other. When I try the second system, the connection fails with a popup message that says: Connection failed sh: x2golistsessions: command not found I’m using the same session configuration for both machines except for the actual machine name. Can someone tell me what this error means and how I might be able to fix it??

Thin(ish) terminal without PXE
by James E. LaBarre 13 Nov '14

13 Nov '14

I am trying to set up a "Thin" terminal on an old T23 ThinkPad laptop, but I'm not looking to set up a PXE server for it to boot off of. Instead I have installed a basic copy of Debian on it (used LXDE just to see that the graphics would work), and have set up x2gothinclient as the "display manager" (ratherthan the default lightdm). The problem I've seen thus far is there is no way to define a x2go login profile, which I would need to even use it at all. The "example" profiles on the login screen cannot be edited, and they don't go anyplace (at least no place in MY home network). There also isn't anyplace on the login screen to add new ones (the way you would if you brought up the x2client on a regular desktop session).

x2go Client not connecting. Where to get more info?
by Diego Costantini 13 Nov '14

Hi, I am trying to connect a Windows 7 machine to a Mint/Cinnamon server with desktop sharing enabled. I see the ssh connection apparently successful from auth.log: Nov 11 17:57:42 myPC sshd[31369]: Accepted keyboard-interactive/pam for myUser from 10.0.0.5 port 49481 ssh2 Nov 11 17:57:42 myPC sshd[31369]: pam_unix(sshd:session): session opened for user sms1\dcostantini by (uid=0) If I try a wrong password it fails, so up to SSH all seems ok. But the client shows nothing, it is greyed out (but seems not frozen) and I can only close the window. Is there some log on the client? Maybe I can find the blocker there and report for more help. I read that Cinnamon was an issue but it should be working now, right? Thanks, Diego

x2go client and numeric pad
by Robert Parts 11 Nov '14

11 Nov '14

Hi, We have problems with x2go and numeric pad. The keys in numeric pad seem to work in random manner, some of them display digits, some are blank, some work like arrow keys. Server: Mint 17, native X2Go client. We have tested both Autodetect and Configured keyboards: pc105 fi pc105 et pc105 de by using WinXP; Win 8.1; Win7 and Mint 17 X2Go clients. pc105 + us works until nobody touch "Num-Lock" button. Press it twice (off & on again) and after that randomly some numbers are ok some not, even same button gives random results. Should I use another Keyboard layout? Is somewhere a list about alternatives? Robert

*Server: Debian "Jessie" X2Go Server: 4.0.1.18-0x2go1+git20141006.949+wheezy.main.1 Client: Windows 7 Pro 64 bit X2Go Client: 4.0.3.0 (Qt - 4.8.6)* Hi, I am using X2Go to access a headless Debian (Jessie) machine from Windows 7. My Windows machine has 3 screens. What I want to do is dedicate one screen to the X2Go session to the server, but still be able to use the other 2 screens on the client. Currently X2Go lets me choose either- 1. Windowed mode, where the cursor can move in or out of the X2Go window 2. Fullscreen mode, where X2Go captures the cursor What I want is a 3rd mode- * Dedicate one client screen to X2Go, but allow the (client, Windows) cursor to move in or out of the X2Go window Is this possible?

Error: "Failed to restore all the required visuals"
by Colin E 05 Nov '14

05 Nov '14

*Server: Debian "Jessie" X2Go Server: 4.0.1.18-0x2go1+git20141006.949+wheezy.main.1 Client: Windows 7 Pro 64 bit X2Go Client: 4.0.3.0 (Qt - 4.8.6)* Hi, I am using X2Go to access a headless Debian (Jessie) machine from Windows 7. At some time in the last couple of days I must have closed or aborted the connection from the client without cleanly shutting down the server session. Now when I try to open a session to the machine I get the error- *Failed to restore all the required visuals Can't resume the NX session on this display* I can see XFCE session and a bunch of other X services running on the server. I can of course just log into the server using SSH and kill all the X processes (or reboot the machine) but that will lose any work in windows that are still open on the server. Is X2Go able to reconnect to an existing server session? If not is there a better way to clean things up than just killing server processes? Regards *Colin E *

Usage question - multiple destination sessions?
by Cohen, Neil 30 Oct '14

30 Oct '14

I have x2go configured on a mac system and I use it to connect to a remote Linux system. Works fine. However, I would like to be able to open a second session on a different Linux system. Is this possible? Right now, it appears that everything hangs when I do that. I’m guessing there are ports that are being reused – probably for the display, but I don’t know anything about x2go configuration files…. If this isn’t possible, is there some way to get multiple, simultaneous access to different remote systems using x2go?

I have seen this once or twice, but it was not reproducible. What are your settings for SSH authentication in the session profile configuration? Can you make a screenshot? Is ssh-agent running and have you loaded your SSH private keys into ssh-agent? Or does pyhoca-gui try to detect some default private key file in ~/.ssh? What hostkey types are configured on the X2Go Server (check /etc/ssh/sshd_config, HostKey parameter).

Packer script and public x2go AMI
by Nick Owen 28 Oct '14

28 Oct '14

Greetings. I recently wrote a tutorial on x2go and have been playing with it some more. I've also started implementing my tutorials as packer scripts. Packer.io is a pretty cool tool that builds various virtual images (amis, vbox, vmware, GCE etc). It allows provisioning via scripts/chef/puppet etc. Anyway, my scripts to create an X2Go server are here: https://github.com/wikidsystems/packer_templates/tree/master/x2go. The AMI is public. It is ami-c854d7a0. Pam-radius is not configured out of the box, you need to do some editing in /etc/pam.d/ssh and /etc/raddb/server for it to work. But with the ami, you can 1. log in as root 2. add a user and have them log in with the x2go client. So, an easy way to play with x2go.

client side printing
by Bernhard J. Mayr 27 Oct '14

27 Oct '14

I am having big trouble administering client side print functionality. I have installed the x2go print package on the server. The user is in the fuse group and there is a spool-dir mounted. In the X2Go Client I configured client side printing. bmayr@127.0.0.1:/home/bmayr/.x2go/S-root-50-1413989095_stDLXDE_dp24/spool on /tmp/.x2go-root/spool/C-root-50-1413989095_stDLXDE_dp24 type fuse.sshfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,default_permissions) When I start a print job, nothing happens. The cups-access log says: localhost - - [22/Oct/2014:17:03:01 +0200] "POST /printers/Virtual_X2Go_Printer HTTP/1.1" 200 21992 Print-Job successful-ok Any ideas what I can do to enable client side printing?

Help requested to debug kde session failure
by Roderick Johnstone 23 Oct '14

23 Oct '14

Hi I need some help debugging my failing x2go sessions please. Client is v4.0.2.1 on OSX Mavericks. Server is 4.0.1.18 on Fedora 20. This is one of Orion's builds for Fedora. I've been using server version 4.0.1.15 for some time, but its a bit flakey in the sense that often it is not easy to reconnect to a session, ie it takes several attempts or the session must be killed and started a fresh. I was trying to see whether the 4.0.1.18 server would fix this issue but it seems to have bigger problems for me. What works is: 1) Connecting to another Fedora 20 system running v4.0.1.15 server on with a KDE session but with the problem of not being able to resume sessions reliably. 2) Connecting to the 4.0.1.18 x2goserver with a single terminal session. What fails is: Connecting to the 4.0.1.18 x2goserver with a KDE session. I get no session at all, and in the client window I get a message simliar to "your connection was closed before it got into a usable state". The connection dialogue disappears before I can read it all, and I can't see where it is saved. In /tmp/.x2go-rmj/C-rmj-159-1414083481_stDKDE_dp32: the state file says STARTING the cmdoutput file says: exec startkde Output of session.log is appended at the bottom. There is more debug info available from /var/log/messages from having set loglevel debug in /etc/x2go/x2goserver.conf which I'm happy to share off line. I've tried setting full debugging in kdebugdialog but nothing at all was logged to ~/.xsession-errors. I'd appreciate any pointers to how to debug this further. I can, of course, log in a KDE session on the console of the system running the 4.0.1.18 server and a simple x2go session running only the Terminal appliation works too on that server.

Hi I was looking for the recently announced x2go v4.0.3.0 client for OSX at http://code.x2go.org/releases/binary-macosx/x2goclient/releases/ but the latest there is 4.0.2.1 dated 21 Oct 09:29. Does this directory take a while to sync up with releases or am I looking in the wrong place? I notice that the heuler directory has 4.0.3.0 subdirectory with a 4.0.3.0 x2goclient dmg. Thanks Roderick

Security setup on server with x2go
by Hanák 22 Oct '14

22 Oct '14

Hello, I would like to ask experienced users, how they solve security topics on their x2go servers. I have the server where users are allowed to start only very a limited set of commands through ssh. I am using sshd_config option ForceCommand which allows to start only /usr/local/bin/check_ssh_cmd where I test SSH_ORIGINAL_COMMAND. Everything works fine so far. Now I need to allow users to start also some commands through x2goclient. The problem is that in order x2go to work I need to allow also every single command which is sent by x2goclient. I tried to track what is being sent and there are a lot of commands like 'sh -c "echo X2GODATABEGIN: ... echo X2GODATAEND"'. So the question is, how to write the rules in check_ssh_cmd wrapper script. If I would allow any command containing X2GODATABEGIN and X2GODATAEND, it would probably work, but my security setup of ssh would be broken, because somebody who knows, how x2go internally works, could sent his own commands wrapped in X2GODATABEGIN and X2GODATAEND. What would you recommend? Any sugestions are appreciated. Pavel

x2go sessions
by Magnus Hagdorn 22 Oct '14

22 Oct '14

Hi there, is there a way I can limit the session types I offer to x2go clients? I would like to stop users from using gnome/kde sessions and get them to use icewm instead. I do realise that if they know how to they could simply execute the relevant session program directly. I'd just like to make the default session sane.

X2Go Server / X2Go Client with openSSH 6.7 (Debian jessie et al.)
by Mike Gabriel 21 Oct '14

21 Oct '14

Hi all, openSSH 6.7 has just entered Debian unstable and will be in Debian jessie soon. It will probably land in other distributions rather sooner than later. As the openSSH developers have--by default--disabled several kex algorithm in the latest openSSH 6.7 release, X2Go Client on older systems (Debian wheezy, Ubuntu 14.04, etc.) will fail connecting to those machines. """ (This probably is the error message X2Go Client shows on your screen...) X2Go Client reports: kex error : did not find one of algos diffie-hellman-group1-sha1 in list curve25519-sha256@libssh.org,ecdh-sha2-nistp256,ecdh-sha2-nistp384,ecdh-sha2-nistp521,diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha256,diffie-hellman-group14-sha1 for kex algos """ The issue can be addressed in two ways... OPTION 1: --------- If you only have control of the client, you may get the issue resolved by backporting a libssh 0.6.3 version. Consult your distribution's build tools to make this happen. I will checkout what we as X2Go upstream can provide for you in our package repositories without breaking other parts of your system (older applications using libssh << 0.6.0 are very likely to break with that newer libssh). OPTION 2: --------- If you have control of the server, then you may want to re-enable the mode-insecure, older, by-default-disabled algos. From the sshd_config man page in openSSH 6.7: """ KexAlgorithms Specifies the available KEX (Key Exchange) algorithms. Multiple algorithms must be comma-separated. The supported algorithms are: curve25519-sha256(a)libssh.org diffie-hellman-group1-sha1 diffie-hellman-group14-sha1 diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha1 diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha256 ecdh-sha2-nistp256 ecdh-sha2-nistp384 ecdh-sha2-nistp521 The default is: curve25519-sha256(a)libssh.org, ecdh-sha2-nistp256,ecdh-sha2-nistp384,ecdh-sha2-nistp521, diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha256, diffie-hellman-group14-sha1 """ What you probably have to add to the KexAlgorithms parameter in /etc/ssh/sshd_config are these additional algos: diffie-hellman-group1-sha1 and diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha1. """ KexAlgorithms curve25519-sha256@libssh.org,diffie-hellman-group1-sha1,diffie-hellman-group14-sha1,diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha1,diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha256,ecdh-sha2-nistp256,ecdh-sha2-nistp384,ecdh-sha2-nistp521 """ If you use the KexAlgorithms option in sshd_config, make sure that you: o also add all the default algos o restart openSSH server on your server and try a second login while you are still logged in with another session (in case you broker something by editing sshd_config) Greets, Mike -- DAS-NETZWERKTEAM mike gabriel, herweg 7, 24357 fleckeby fon: +49 (1520) 1976 148 GnuPG Key ID 0x25771B31 mail: mike.gabriel(a)das-netzwerkteam.de, http://das-netzwerkteam.de freeBusy: https://mail.das-netzwerkteam.de/freebusy/m.gabriel%40das-netzwerkteam.de.x…

Changing the X2Go Client for Windows version numbering
by Michael DePaulo 21 Oct '14

21 Oct '14

X2Go Users, I'd like feedback on this topic. I am thinking of switching the X2Go Client for Windows version numbering over to the version numbering that X2Go Client for Mac OS X uses such as: If X2Go Client for Windows 4.0.3.0 were released today: 4.0.3.0-20141020 If I had to make any sort of change, either in the build process or in the source code, on 2014-11-21: 4.0.3.0-20141121 The reason for this change is that I believe these version numbers will be simpler and less confusing. This would be especially true for Windows users who are not used to the version numbering used by Linux distros. Under the current version numbering , if I were to build X2Go Client for Windows 4.0.3.0 when it is released the version number would simply be: 4.0.3.0 Then say I had to make 2 changes to the build process, such as calling different commands during the build process or bundling different 3rd party binaries/libraries (e.g., VcXsrv, OpenSSL). The 2 new version numbers would be: 4.0.3.0+build1 4.0.3.0+build2 If I had to then make a change to the source code, it would be: 4.0.3.0+hotfix1 And if I had to make 2 more changes to the build process, the 2 new version numbers would be: 4.0.3.0+hotfix1+build1 4.0.3.0+hotfix1+build2 -Mike#2
