Hello,
thank you very much for the tip. This solved my problem immediately!. I guess someone should add this to the default rc.local when the thinclient image is being generated. It can't do any harm even if "lo" is already up. Sound also worked immediately, which is very impressive. I'm now moving all my thin clients over from NX to X2GO :-)

Hi jean,
I had the same problem, and was because the loopback interface not coming up after thinclient boot I solved it puting "ifconfig lo up" in the rc.local script inside the chroot.
I guess that the network script fails at some point because the read only filesystem.
Let me know if this work for you
Good luck And excuse my poor english.

Mike,
thanks for the quick reply. I did that, and upgraded all the x2go packages including x2goagent. Now I have these packages on the server:
||/ Name Version Description

Unfortunately the problem is still the same, error log on the client still the same, and server's error log is now:
NXAGENT - Version 3.5.0 Copyright (C) 2001, 2011 NoMachine.

Note the new nxagent version reflected in the server log.
Any other ideas are welcome. I can do some tcpdumps if it helps, but not sure if we can see much due to the SSH...

Hello,
I have been using freenx for a few years, and have been looking for something better since freenx is no longer maintained and sound support is shaky. I was very glad to find the x2go project, specially since it works exactly like I imagine with diskless thin clients (I have to use USB sticks to boot my current clients for freenx).
Anyway, after being somewhat confused by the outdated info and repositories listed on <http://x2go.org>x2go.org, I found the wiki and was able to install x2goserver (onto Ubuntu ) and configure a PXE thin client environment. To my surprise, the thin clients booted on the first attempt and x2goclient came up, which was very unexpected!
Now I have the following problem:
- I can login without problem from a windows x2goclient onto my ubuntu x2goserver
- however any attempt to login from the pxe booted thin clients fails.
The client displays (after starting nxproxy 3.5) Connecting to remote host 'localhost:33001' And then Connection timeout aborting
On the server I find these logs:
/usr/bin/x2goagent: line 1: -e: command not found
NXAGENT - Version 3.4.0

I understand that there is some kind of callback procedure whereby the client connects to the server, and then the server connects back to the client, and this seems to be failing. I do not know how else to proceed.
In addition to version 3.99.0.2 of x2goclient and x2goplugin (which was the one installed by default in the chroot environment), I also tried version 3.99.0.3 from the unstable repository, and an older 3.01-21, all with no luck.
I am wondering if your problem is on the server side. It seems like you are using a very outdate x2goagent version.
If possible for you, please test our (still not final) new build of libnx. So, on the server, please install from
deb <http://packages.x2go.org/debian>http://packages.x2go.org/**debian squeeze heuler
Greets, Mike
