[X2Go-Dev] [X2Go-Commits] [x2goclient] 01/01: Add new brocker feature. Broker can send to client some configuration in the section START_CLIENT_CONFIG - END_CLIENT_CONFIG. For the moment is supported option events=bool. If true, client sending to broker events: CONNECTING, CONNECTED, SUSPENDING, TERMINATING, FINISHED. It's not a real session state, but rather the state of X2Go Client.

[Oleksandr Shneyder]

Hi Mike,

unfortunately it's not always possible to get the session state from
X2Go server. One simple example - direct RDP session. Another use case,
sometimes (for example because of security reasons), you can't have
access from X2Go Broker to X2Go Server.
Anyway if you are running the network with many clients, different kinds
of sessions (X2GO, XDMCP, RDP, DRDP), you'll appreciate the information
that you can collect from X2Go Clients.

regards
Alex
