[X2Go-Dev] Bug#195: windows client ignores ssh port

[Matthias Kauer]

Hi Gabriel,
I can't verify all your questions right now since I don't have access to 
this setup for a bit, but I'll try my best:

The VM is the server, I was essentially connecting from the host system 
to the guest system. I rerouted port 17022 in the advanced NAT settings 
(or port forwarding settings) of virtual box and I never actually 
changed the ssh port. [This setup worked with putty, but maybe I should 
verify if this is at the root of the problem]

About where I manipulate the port, I really think that was in the 
session profile and I probably never touched the global settings.
I'll try to verify that ASAP though.

Best,
Matthias
