Heyy Jason,

no, that is no addition to the component of x2go, but rather an add-on if you will. I've just extended what the client is capable of doing in changing some scripts up and using the x2goserver itselft to be the one that hosts the applications, that then connect to another, the target PC. 

Imagine a scenario like this: use the x2goclient to connect to the x2goserver, but instead of starting your favorite window manager, only start the one with the smallest footprint you can find: awesome for example. In that you start a program like xfreerdp to connect to another PC that's running a RDP Server and that is your whole mechanism ;)

Hope this helps thinking!

Greetings, 
Kjellski

Hello Kjell

I am also interested in this, for accessing both Linux and Windows servers.
Is the proxy an additional component installed on a Linux box to use as a
gateway through to Windows/RDP?

Thanks
Jason
