[X2Go-User] Limiting clipboard sharing

[Michael DePaulo]

Hi Kris,

I'm the Windows maintainer for X2Go Client (and soon, PyHoca-GUI).

My advise is about the Windows X2Go Client. Others can probably advise
you on the Linux X2Go client.

Anyway, if you are using the Windows X2Go Client, you can override the
X server setting under:
Options -> Settings -> X-server Settings
You can point it to X2Go's own integrated X server, VcXsrv, and pass
the --noclipboard option.
The integrated X server is located at:
On 64-bit Windows: C:\Program Files (x86)\x2goclient\VcXsrv\vcxsrv.exe
On 32-bit Window: C:\Program Files\x2goclient\VcXsrv\vcxsrv.exe

There are other clipboard options for VcXsrv that I am not an expert
on. I've attached the full arguments list for VcXsrv 1.14.2.1 (VcXsrv
1.14.2.1 is included with X2Go Client 4.0.1.2 and 4.0.1.3)
