[X2Go-User] Change windows XServer listening port

2016-05-19 Thread Short, Kermit
Greetings!

   I don't know exactly when a local XServer started being included in the 
Windows client, but I noticed recently that it's there.  Is there a way to 
configure the port that this listens on?  I know how to do it in things like 
MobaXterm, Cygwin, etc., but I don't see an option for doing this in the 
Windows X2Go client.  Anyone have any thoughts?

[X2Go-User] Problems accessing broker server

2015-01-28 Thread Short, Kermit
Greetings,
   Suddenly, after rebooting our broker server, I'm not able to access the 
configurations hosted by the broker server.  When I look in the logs, I see 
something similar to the following:

[Wed Jan 28 15:58:19 2015] [error] [client 192.168.204.69] (13)Permission 
denied: mod_wsgi (pid=3796): Unable to connect to WSGI daemon process 
'x2gobroker' on '/var/run/apache2/wsgi.3785.0.1.sock' after multiple attempts.

Would anyone have any suggestions as to how I can resolve this?

Thanks!

Re: [X2Go-User] Building x2goclient from sources

Hi Stefan,
   Between some notes I'd taken last year when I worked on this, and some blind 
luck in guessing, I was able to get the client to build.

   I do have some further questions, but I'll probably ask those on the dev 
list.  Thanks!

Kermit, I'm not too sure if you can expect that many qualified replies
to a compile question on x2go-_user_.  Not saying it's off-topic here,
but you might have better luck over on x2go-_dev_, where the diehard
coders hang out. ;-)

[X2Go-User] Building x2goclient from sources

2015-01-26 Thread Short, Kermit
Greetings!
   I am trying to build the client from source tarballs.  I am following the 
steps outlined at 
  
http://wiki.x2go.org/doku.php/wiki:development:build-howto-linux:x2goclient
   I have downloaded and untarred the nx-libs_3.5.0.13 full tarball.

   after I
  cd nx-libs_3.5.0.13/nxproxy
  autoconf
  ./configure --prefix=/custom
  make

   I get the following:
if [ -x makedepend ] ; then \
makedepend -I. -I../nxcomp -I. -I../nxcomp \
-I/usr/include/g++ -I/usr/include/g++-3  -f Makefile 
Main.c   2/dev/null; \
fi

/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lXcomp
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [nxproxy] Error 1

Do I have to compile/install anything in the nx-libs parent directory 
beforehand?
Thanks!

Re: [X2Go-User] x2go broker server integration with ballast

2014-10-15 Thread Short, Kermit
Hi Mike,
   My apologies, I didn't mean to imply an sort of X2Go product called Cluster 
Services.  I'm simply referring to the Load Balanced implementation of X2Go 
Broker.  As Begnt Giger mentioned, there is a significant amount of 
infrastructure behind the Load Balanced implementation.  I would certainly 
agree with his assessment of account replication in Postgres.  While we could 
get around it, it would be a lot easier if we didn't have to.  Additionally, 
Load Balancing implementation seems to require the ability for root to write 
files to each individual's home directory.  In our case, all of our user home 
directories are hosted on a central NetApp server, and that home directory 
export is root squashed.

   Due to the significant challenges we're faced with this load balancing 
implementation, I was hoping there may be another approach we could take to 
load balancing an x2go terminal server, such as load balancing ssh connections 
using ballast.  This is purely exploratory and theoretical.  It just appears 
that certain assumptions are made about the network and service infrastructure 
environment with the currently offered load balancing implementation of X2Go 
Broker server that we are unable to meet, so I'm looking for an alternative.

Thanks!

I've tried using the Cluster Services developed by the X2Go team,

What exactly is the Cluster Services? None of us has developed
something under that name.

With our project X2Go Session Broker there are indeed some caveats
regarding HOMEs on NFS.

Please report bugs / enter the discussion with us, so we can pin down
the causes of your problems.

[X2Go-User] Postgres configuration for load balancing

2014-05-19 Thread Short, Kermit
Greetings,
   While I haven't been able to compile the x2go client for our IGELs,
I'm pushing forward with the project using the existing version.  As
such, I'm trying to create a load balancing cluster, but I'm stuck
adding users to the postgresql database, and I need to do a sanity
check.

Assumption 1:
   I have to manually create each user in the database for that user to
have group membership and/or be able to log in and create a session on
the load balanced server.

Assumption 2:
   The x2godbadmin script must be run as root to gain access to the
root-only file containing the postgres database managment user's
password.

If either of those assumptions are incorrect, please advise.

My problem is that all of our home directories are on root-squashed NFS
volumes.  As the script is running under root's context, the script is
unable to create ~/.x2go/sqlpass, which would seemingly prevent the user
from being able to utilize any member of the load balancing cluster.

Obviously, if I can simply pass through PAM credentials and LDAP lookups
without the need for this information to live in a postgresql database,
none of this is a problem.

Likewise, if I can run the x2godbadmin script as each individual user,
while extremely painful, I can write a script to do this.

Am I way off in the woods on my logic here?

Thanks!
