Thanks Uli!
Yeah, I've thought about lots of little workarounds like that... But it would just be so clean to be able to pass "-F ~/.ssh/config-x2go" parameter!!! Then I could have a "clean" x2go ssh config that didn't contain options libssh doesn't understand!
Again, I appreciate your input.
Sincerely,
Mike

Hello,
unfortunately we are stuck with the options libssh supports. You can try to build a tunnel with your config and then point x2go to the tunnel, like so:
ssh -L 5022:localhost:22 <youruser>@<yourdest>
Then instruct x2go to use localhost:5022.
Might work, depending on your specific option.
Beware that sound, printer and file access will probably not work this way because they are using an ssh connection from the server to the client, AFAIR.

I've added some configuration options to my personal ".ssh/config" client configuration on my linux client which are newer than the libssh file used by x2go. Specifically, the "Tag" feature, which turns out to be really useful to me. However, x2go gives "Failed to process system configuration files" error. Testing confirms the problem is with the new options in the ssh config file.
My Question: Is there a way to provide options to the ssh command issued by x2go? Specifically of course I'm thinking of the "-F <configfile>" option that specifies an alternative per-user configuration file.
Thanks in advance, Mike
