Email doesn't seem to be a great way to send someone a key (e.g., as a password protected file)maybe try some sort of user login web page or drop box? My understanding of the documented way of giving someone a key assumes you are on the same LANis that wrong? Uh, no. You shouldn't create the private key for them. It's called a private key for a reason. It's theirs, and theirs alone. Have your users create their private keys on their own machines. Then have them send you their *public* keys via E-Mail, and verify the fingerprint of the public key by transmitting it on a different channel (SMS, phone call, snail-mail letter, fax, whatever). -Stefan ___ X2Go-Dev mailing list X2Go-Dev@lists.berlios.de https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/x2go-dev
Re: [X2go-dev] x2go browser plugin

You could use a mime-type or filename-extention what opens x2goclient and what gives the information what's needed for a connection. Like what you can do with OpenOffice when opening a .odt file in a browser. And then you could use it with any browser, not only with Firefox. And you could have it for more platforms. And you have less duplicated code. This is a nice idea and one we have toyed with. However, there are several advantages to the web plugin. I believe the plugin will update automatically so it is less maintenance. The plugin is a little easier to install than a complete application. There is the user perception that X2Go can be run from anywhere without having to install a client even though it really does.
