With client side printing disabled, it doesn't. It seems to hang on the fuse file system. Beyond that I wish fuse weren't necessary since I'm using x2go in a commercial shell server environment where I have over 500 users. Additing each to the fuse group is not really practical.
Use pam_group.so with /etc/security/group.conf. With that, you can push (e.g. LDAP) users temporarily into system groups (or other groups) once they log in. Only that login shell "thinks" that those user are in those groups, they don't get added into /etc/group or such.
Not wanting to add users to the fuse group (because I don't want them to be able to use the file sharing) is why I developed my workaround. (See other post.) @Mike#1: Do you think we should open a wishlist bug to integrate my workaround with x2goclient and its ssh tunneling? IMO, my workaround is actually the "cleaner" way of printing through X2Go, but it might require some changes to cups-x2go and some server-side logic for a flawless integration.
@Stefan: I have re-read your suggestion about tunneling LPR/LPD-like traffic. I don't think we should follow that road in X2Go because:
o adding another SSH tunnel to the X2Go session DB is a PITA I have just gone through for telekinesis.
o (actually, using telekinesis maybe an approach of the future...)o people on the client-side are required to do additional steps (intalling lpd from the Windows CD e.g.) o people on the CUPS server have to deal with the client-side printer drivers
I think, that the current concept of remote printing is quite ok in these respects:
o create a printable file on the server-side that can be handled by all sorts of clients o print that file on the client with the hardware/printer-drivers of the client
The only question is: is fuse/sshfs the best way of shoving that printable over to the client...
