I've been running x2go from an xubuntu laptop client to an xubuntu desktop machine successfully for a year or so. It has now stopped working with a pop-up window that says:-
Access denied for 'password'. Authentication that can continue: publickey,password Access denied for 'password'. Authentication that can continue: publickey,password(yes, it is repeated like that)
I have moved from xubuntu 18.04 to 19.04 (via 18.10), would this have caused the problem maybe?
What happens when you use the same password for a regular SSH session, from the same client?
It all works with password authentication as it always used to, I spend half my life permanently connected via ssh connections between these machines! :-) The upgrades 18.04 -> 18.10 -> 19.04 didn't have any noticeable effect on my ssh usage.
Anything in /etc/ssh/sshd_config on the server that might have changed during the upgrade? (You do have a backup you could compare it to, right?)
Probably, I'll go and take a look.....
... that's odd, my connection to the backup machine (using ssh) didn't ask for a password. I'll clear everything down (as in reboot this laptop) and try all over again. I'll be back to report what I find.
