[X2go-dev] X2go server and hostname
Hi, When resuming or killing a session with the x2go client the client does this based on hostname of the server (eq x2goserver). When connecting through a vpn tunnel the hostname cannot be resolved. Can this be changed to a ip-based setup ? With kind regards, Jasper van der Marel Stone-IT ___ X2go-dev mailing list X2go-dev@lists.berlios.de https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/x2go-dev

We do rewrite the DNS settings when we establish the VPN so that we can resolve internal names but I just reconfigured my X2Go VPN session to use the IP address instead of the host name. It established the session fine. I then suspended and reconnected and it worked. I then suspended and changed back to using the name and, once again, it connected fine.

Re: [X2go-dev] x2goprint and user rights
Hi, Just to mention the homedirs are on a samba server (cifs) and when I try to mount a local drive the mounts.log file fills up with connection reset by peer messages. When using a local homedir (same user in ldap) I get the same errors.

I have just one issue with x2goprint. When printing as al local user everything works out of the box. When printing als a ldap-user the job prints but is not send to the client. The server is an Ubuntu server (9.0.4) and the user is member of x2gousers and fuse, just as mentioned in the docs. Can someone look into this (last) problem ?

Re: [X2go-dev] x2goprint and user rights
Hi, The user is member of all groups I can imagine to have sufficient rights to print with x2go print and to share drivers : j.van.der.ma...@azn-svap212:~$ groups ldapusers x2goprint fuse lpadmin x2gousers Still I am getting errors (not able to mount drives and to print to the client).

I was working on this last night and that's where I left off - the job printed from the application but there was no output and print manager had no jobs in queue. We are also using LDAP based users. I assumed it was my misconfiguration and plan to pick this up again in an hour or two so I will be very interested in other responses to this issue. I was wondering if I misunderstood the documentation and I misconfigured the group memberships. It says, If you would like to use the file system sharing option of X2go, you'll need to make sure that those users also are part of the posix group “fuse”. This membership is also needed by x2goprint. I assumed that means the x2goprint user must be a member of fuse. Is that the case or is it really saying the user must be a member of x2goprint?

Re: [X2go-dev] x2goprint and user rights
Ah, interesting. That could be the problem for the file shares. Exposing the physical desktop file system is working brilliantly well for us (thanks, Heinz and Oleksandr) but we are accessing the home directories via iSCSI. Can one mount into a SAMBA share? If so, it might be non-default behavior. If one can't and neither iSCSI presented or local home directories are not an option, I wonder if you can create a local storage area outside of the home directories (a pain for both admins and users) and use it strictly for sharing physical desktop files. I'd imagine you would need to hack the X2Go scripts to change the default mount point. I don't know if that has been exposed in the user interface or in x2go.conf. I think there is such a file which we have used in the past to configure a remote database server. I don't know what other options it takes - John On Fri, 2010-02-05 at 16:18 +0100, jasper van der marel wrote: Hi, Just to mention the homedirs are on a samba server (cifs) and when I try to mount a local drive the mounts.log file fills up with connection reset by peer messages.

Re: [X2go-dev] Reconnect to suspended session

Is there some configuration to do (some equivalent of node.conf)? We are testing on Hardy (Ubuntu 8.0.4) and are about to move to Lenny. In our case, we find T no longer brings up the terminate or disconnect dialog. However, the X2Go client has a suspend option that is working fine for us. It just cannot be done from within the X2Go session - a bit unfortunate when in full screen mode. If there is a way, would someone kindly let us know. For now, we simply return to the X2Go client on the physical desktop and click on Suspend - John Hello John, Hello Oliver, with the command: # x2gosuspend-session $X2GO_SESSION (executed on the server inside your session) you can suspend your session. It is also possible to use the packages x2gognomebindings and x2gokdebindings (please don't forget to run updatelockbutton) to get this function inside your session graphically. best regards, Heinz ___ X2go-dev mailing list X2go-dev@lists.berlios.de https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/x2go-dev

Many thanks in advance, Jasper van der Marel Stone-IT Hello Jasper, if you are using the LDAP mode of the client, you can't use x2goprint at the moment. This will be fixed in one of the upcomming versions. The LDAP mode is totally untested (by us) on ubuntu. If you're using LDAP just for authentification this setup should work. best regards, Heinz ___ X2go-dev mailing list X2go-dev@lists.berlios.de https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/x2go-dev
