It SHOULD (tm). However, Windows users might prefer a more GUI-ish approach. Check out PuTTY: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html There's PuTTYgen (a GUI to create and manage keyfiles) and Pageant (an SSH agent for Windows). Do note that PuTTYgen by default creates private key files that are only usable with the other tools from the PuTTY suite (like Pageant), NOT with X2GoClient itself. So you can either use Pageant and load the PuTTY-style private key file into that, then tell X2GoClient to use an agent-stored key (leaving the path to the key file blank in the session configuration), or you need to export the private key using PuTTYgen into the standard format. -Stefan -- BAUR-ITCS UG (haftungsbeschränkt) Geschäftsführer: Stefan Baur Eichenäckerweg 10, 89081 Ulm | Registergericht Ulm, HRB 724364 Fon/Fax 0731 40 34 66-36/-35 | USt-IdNr.: DE268653243
