Hi,
Is it possible to open an induvial port forward from the client machine to the x2go server?
I need this for a windows software to connect to the Linux server.
My first approach wars to use on the client a ssh_config, but the client creates the connection directly from the x2go client application with some ssh libs.
So ok, the next approach wars to use the ssh_config on the Linux site, because for the printer and the file connection, the server open a ssh connection to a ssh-Daemon on the Client site. But the ssh connection use the option “ClearAllForwardings”, so the forwards on a config-file are not working.
So someone have an idea for this topic?

Thomas,
We always do our port-forwarding for x2go via a firewall appliance, but you can do this pretty easily by implementing a firewall on the Linux box and doing your port-forwarding from there. On the client side, you simply specify the port for ssh (maybe 222 or 223 or something) and then redirect that port on the server's firewall to the actual ssh port (22).
You can do a quick Google search on port-forwarding with IPTables or ufw to get a feel for how this is done.
Thanks,
