Triston Line updated GUACAMOLE-1417:
------------------------------------
Description:
Apache Guacamole is a fantastic product because it brings all of your sessions
to one centralized console- and it makes those connections accessible to a
variety of client systems. This is fantastic and beats any local client (e.g.
Remmina) if you have multiple sites and travel between them (because your
client will need to go from local to remote IP if there isn't a VPN for
example. It also beats local clients because there is no installation, there
aren't multiple types of clients for various operating systems, etc.
X2go is a highly improved remote desktop compared to VNC and the setup time
required for X2go is under 1 minute on most Linux systems unlike VNC which can
take tens of minutes and can be finicky to maintain.
The Apache Guacamole FAQ ([https://guacamole.apache.org/faq/#support-x2go)]
claims that supporting X2go would be complicated. However, there is a working
open source X2go HTML 5 client available that could be ported into Apache
Guacamole. In addition to this, X2go is open source via GPL and AGPL which I
believe is compatible with Apache Guacamole

taken up to 30mins on a system that was behaving poorly.
