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

Thanks - John > > _ Hmm . . . our problem has magically gone away :-( At first I thought it was because we use a non-standard SSH port for security. We changed the SSH port expected for local shares in the X2GoClient to reflect the changed port (options settings). The local shares worked fine but printing did not. We noticed errors about transport not connected (I believe this is a fuse error) and saw that the file permissions in the /tmp/spooler directory were mangled (mostly question marks). We changed back to the standard port 22 and printing jumped alive. We changed back to the non-standard port to confirm this was the problem and, lo and behold, printing still worked! We switched a few times, restarted the host. Printing still works. I have no idea what changed :-( ___ X2go-dev mailing list X2go-dev@lists.berlios.de https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/x2go-dev
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] 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).

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.

Interesting. 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?

[X2go-dev] x2goprint and user rights
Hi, I have just configured our first x2go server with thanks to the developers of x2go for solving some problems. 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 ?
