Ok, I'm very confused.. I've installed just about every x2go item in apt search and still no go. I'm running wsl, fully updated and upgraded. I've tried numerous docs and steps to get it to work and it always says it can't timeout connecting to 192.168.1.137:8888 Can someone PLEASE help me figure this out. if I try the browser plugin it says "invalid plugin" here's the main thing I've been following, as you can see session.conf is not in /etc like he said it would be.
Thanks in advance Bear

What is 'wsl'? Don't assume that anyone knows your environment. Please specify what you have in excrutiating detail, so people can replicate the issue.

Are you connecting from the same host, or a seperate host?
What versions of the software are you using? Post the details.
What client OS are you using? What version of the client software are you using?
Troy> Can someone PLEASE help me figure this out.
sure, once you post some more useful information.

Does it work if you don't use the browser plugin?
Step back and see if you can make it work locally only on the server. Then try with a full client remotely, then try the browser based version.

Exactly what are you trying to achieve? It's hard to tell from your description.

Bear,
If you're trying to use X2GoServer on Windows Subsystem for Linux, and intend to use is as some kind of RDP replacement for your Windows Desktop, my guess is that it is bound to fail. There is no way to display Windows applications or the Windows Desktop natively via X2Go, as they don't output to an X Server, but to Windows' GDI. You'll only be able to display Linux applications/a Linux Desktop running within WSL.
To further debug your issues: Run the native Windows X2GoClient.exe in portable mode - that way it will create a "sessions" file rather than saving its settings to the Registry. Post the content of that file to the list.
As root inside WSL, run:
netstat -ant
as well as
netstat -tulpen
and also post the output of these commands to the list.
Kind Regards, Stefan Baur

Bear,
two more things:
if I try the browser plugin it says "invalid plugin"
Please stay away from the browser plugin. It is deprecated and no longer of use for the general public (there are some edge cases where it might still work, that's why it's still available).
here's the main thing I've been following, as you can see session.conf is not in /etc like he said it would be.
This part has nothing to do with X2Go - our session configuration file goes in ~/.x2goclient and is named "sessions".
What you're looking at here is a DBUS session configuration file, so you should check back with the person that wrote the howto, or look for DBUS documentation. Again, nothing that has to do with X2Go, so nothing that we will be able to help you with, sorry.
