[X2Go-Dev] ATTN: Alex - Questions regarding x2goclient.exe --portable and session specification

[newsgroups.mail2 at stefanbaur.de]

Hi Alex,

another question regarding the Windows client and its portable mode:

Is everything in the C:\Program Files\x2goclient directory 
"self-contained" and not relying on absolute path names by default, or 
does a truly portable install require additional pre- or post-install 
tweaks?
In other words, can I copy/move the entire folder to another 
drive/medium (Network share, USB memory stick, CD-ROM,...) and it should 
still work?

I don't care about the entries in the start menu, these can easily be 
(re)created with a script if needed.
The reason why I'm asking is that this would allow for a central update 
location in a LAN when a new client version gets released:
Either run the client directly from the network share, or have a script 
copy the contents onto the client machines.

I'm aware the installer has the /S option for a silent install, but 
having a single copy on a network share (or simply copying updated files 
over to the clients using robocopy or xcopy) seems easier than a 
scripted update on $BIGNUM client machines.
(where $BIGNUM in my case is currently roughly 30 LANs with 5-15 client 
machines each, with more to come each month).
