Yes, that was automatically made. I wondered about that.

#### X2GO section
%x2gousers ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/x2gopgwrapper

Ah, stupid. That's the problem. I forgot the installation of PostgreSQL
completely...  Thanks.

I think I can use /usr/lib/x2go/script/x2gocreatebase.sh to create a
database, correct?  I don't have an installation manual anymore for this
version.

I don't use LDAP at the moment.

I have some customers who are still not migrated to Lenny.
It are mostly complex installations with thinclients.

Only remote screen, keyboard, mouse. Nothing special.
I would prefer to use sqlite as a database. Is that possible?

With regards,
