I've been wrestling with a strange error that only seemed to be affecting my Linux laptop (OpenSUSE Tumbleweed), connecting to my Linux server (OpenSUSE LEAP). Sessions seemed to start, but wouldn't connect. If I tried to connect a 2nd time, it appeared to offer me an existing session, but would not connect.
The client scrolled errors related to "unknown remote host 'localhost', and "unable to resolve remote host 'localhost'.
Turned out I had removed the localhost entry from my /etc/hosts file.
Adding this back, fixed this problem.
I'm sending this email in case it is helpful to others. I couldn't seem to find any documentation mentioning localhost.

Hello,
is there any way to see the client version who is connected, on the server?

There's not. This information is not exposed anywhere, and, for what it's worth, never queried by X2Go Server since it's not needed.
OT: please don't thread-hijack the next time.

Anyway, this is not a bad idea ... Would be nice to have such information when, like us, you have dozens of users connected to x2goservers using fat client and not TCE.
