Package: x2goclient
Version: 4.0.5.1
Severity: wishlist


Probably an already asked feature request but since X2Go rely on SSH, this is pretty sad that it is not possible to forward SSH Agent with X2Go client.
Why so ?
I guess it is only a matter of adding the "-A" switch to the SSH command line (or so) and this really is a missing feature since, for our concern, we're based on encrypted SSH key authentication in order to connect developpers VMs with X2Go which has teir own subset of LXC containers running on top of them so my developpers can then SSH to them but lacking the Agent forwarding feature, they have to type their password where it is not needed for the top VM.

Is this a planned feature ?
Any estimated delivery time for this ?


Best regards,

Walid Moghrabi
