Mac OS X 10.8.3 x2goclient 4.0.1.x session keyboard input issue
by Paul Freeman 16 Sep '13

16 Sep '13

Hi, I am running the latest x2goclient (4.0.1.x) for Mac OS X (10.8.3) and have noticed an unusual problem relating to keyboard input when starting a configured session for the second time. The first time a session is started, the username and password can be typed but when you exit the session then launch it again (without exiting x2goclient) keyboard keystrokes do not appear in the username and password fields. If you exit x2goclient then start it again it works but only once. In case it helps, I noticed I can paste text into the field. Has anyone else observed this? I have tried using the latest stable release of the X server, XQuartx 2.7.4 and the latest beta release 2.7.5_rc2 with the same results. I did not want to lodge a bug report yet in case it was something particular to my installation or setup.

Two factor authentication using Google linux PAM module and Authenticator App
by Paul Freeman 13 Sep '13

13 Sep '13

Hi, I was wondering whether it is possible to implement two factor authentication in X2go? Ie. ssh password based login with the Google two factor authentication Linux PAM module and Google Authenticator App for iOS or Android. Would this be any more secure than using ssh private/public keys?

Smart Card Forwarding
by Markus Bräunig 12 Sep '13

12 Sep '13

Hello, I am looking for a solution to provide secure authentication / mail signing etc on a central place, so I researched the actual available OS-Solutions for this task. I have a smart card reader built into the client which I want to use for: - authentication at the Terminal Server - "taking" my smart card with me to authenticate at further destinations (connection is initiated at the Terminal Server). What I found out is, that the upcoming version of nx can do such a thing and the commercial solutions offer also this functionality (Windows only, Citrix, Oracle SDG …) Is it possible with x2go to forward the smart card (reader) to the terminal server in a secure way to use it for further actions? If yes: What do I need for this? Regards Markus

x2goclient on Windows crashes
by Alejandro Alberola 10 Sep '13

10 Sep '13

Hello, We are trying to run a Java program from x2goclient on Windows in application mode. Using version 4.0.0.3 in Windows XP, x2goclient crashes everytime with the following message: "vcxsrv.exe encountered a problem and needs to close." Using version 4.0.0.3 in Windows 7, it works without any problem. Using the preview version (4.0.1.0-pre02) on Windows XP it works properly most of the time, but sometimes crashes too. Any idea ? Thanks. // --- Alejandro Alberola ---

Possible problem with printing & newer versions of Adobe Acrobat
by Madog 04 Sep '13

04 Sep '13

Hi All: Has anyone had trouble printing with the newer versions of Adobe acrobat (e.g., "X") with the following symptoms: - connect up to server over ssh from windows (x2go version 4.0.0.3) - open a document from the x2go session and print - on the client, Adobe flashes briefly (if check "Show this dialog before start printing", get the dialog box) - nothing comes out the printer (have tried USB and network printers) As best I can tell, a link is created in the Adobe reader "Open a Recent File" page on the client. If I click on this link in Adobe, I can then open and print the file as long as the x2go session is active. Once I shut down the x2go session, the link no longer works. Also, if I print as a .PDF, the file is generated on the client as a pdf, I can print it, and the file stays on the client. I.e., the print jobs used to go directly to the printer. Currently, I have to "print twice". Not a "hair on fire", but was wondering if there is a way to address this (possibly even in the Adobe settings, but ideally from the server). Does this sound like possibly a change in Acrobat? Or something I need to check on the x2go client or x2go server side? Thanks!

New feature for next PyHoca-GUI release (0.4.0.9): passphrase protected SSH keys
by Mike Gabriel 03 Sep '13

03 Sep '13

Hi all, today I have added a new (long waited for) feature to PyHoca-GUI. So far, in PyHoca-GUI (python-x2go) it was only possible to use passphrase-protected / encrypted SSH keys via an ssh-agent process that unlocks those keys when being added to the agent's keyring previous to logging into an X2Go Server. Unlocking those keys natively in PyHoca-GUI was not possible so far. -> Now it is!!! The nightly built packages are currently building and the 0.4.0.9 preview of PyHoca-GUI will soon be available for testing this new feature. Within the next couple of days I will add the pendant feature to PyHoca-CLI. Those of you using PyHoca-GUI may test this new feature by encrypting your private key file... $ ssh-keygen -p ... and then using this key file in PyHoca-GUI. Don't add your key(s) to ssh-agent to see the new passphrase dialog pop up. WARNING: Make sure you do not forget the password for unlocking the key, otherwise your key will be lost. It surely is a good idea to make a backup of your SSH key files before playing with this.

can't get pulseaudio working on 64bits windows7
by philip van houtte 30 Aug '13

30 Aug '13

I installed x2go client 3.0.0.4 out-of-the-box on a windows 7 64bits PC. Everything works fine but pulseaudio. When I install the same image on a 32bits windows7 PC pulseaudio renders good sound. This is consistent for all 64bit PC's I tried. Anyone has a clue? Thanks, philip

How to dynamically resize the session display ?
by Christophe Lohr 30 Aug '13

30 Aug '13

Hi, I'm trying x2go to be connected on an GNOME desktop. The gnome-control-center tool allows us to dynamically change the resolution of the remote desktop. This immediately resizes the window of the x2go viewer. Unfortunately, this causes strange effects regarding the gnome desktop: the taskbar and the menu bar are truncated, dialog boxes are no more centered, etc. It is as if information about the new resolution were not propagated to gnome. Is there a better way to do that? (Is it a bug regarding the implementation of xrandr?) PS: It has nothing to do, but I've seen that x2goclient has an "maximize" option. Unfortunately this affect only the window of the session manager. It would be nice if the window of x2goagent could also be maximized (and not only fullscreen or at custom resolution). Isn't it? Best regards Christophe
