Make sure you've checked the ''Automount'' checkbox as well as the one that says ''Use SSH port forwarding...''. The latter should be enabled by default.
<note tip>If you decide against automounting, see [[doc:howto:x2goclient-file-sharing#manually_mounting_shared_folders_on_demand|Manually mounting Shared Folders on Demand]] below for manual mounting instructions.</note>
+ <note important>Un-checking ''Use SSH
port forwarding...'' for Folder Sharing is something you should try to avoid.
While the connection will still be encrypted due to the use of SSH, it will
likely cause problems that result in Folder Sharing not working at all.
+ //In theory,// it should be possible to un-check this box if there is no firewall or NAT routing between the Windows client and the Linux server. Note that //firewall// in this case refers to **both** hardware firewalls build into routers or bridges, as well as to software firewalls running on the Windows Client - like the built-in one that comes with every Windows since Windows XP ServicePack 2, or one belonging to an Internet Security Suite you might be running, and/or on the Linux Server, like ''iptables''.
+
+ //In reality,//, though, we've seen it fail more often than not, even when these conditions were met.
+
+ The one reason why you might want to un-check it is a slight performance increase due to saving some overhead, especially when running over a
VPN connection, but at present, it just isn't worth the effort, especially for
beginners.
