Yes, that's because some of the applications we need to bundle with
X2GoClient.exe are "stupid" and insist on binding to 0.0.0.0, where
binding to 127.0.0.1 would suffice.

Windows detects these attempts to bind and prompts you to confirm or
deny this.  You should deny them.

You can safely deny listening services on anything but 127.0.0.1 by
adding such rules manually beforehand.  The only exception would be
pulseaudio, if you insist on *not* tunneling that traffic through SSH.
While X2GoClient does offer that option, tunneling through SSH is
enabled by default and I am not aware of anyone using it in "disabled" mode.

By the way, are you aware that you can run X2GoClient via a read-only
network share?  That way, you don't have to push updates to the
individual PCs - update your central installation on the network share,
once, and you're all set.

[X2Go-User] Windows UAC Prompts

2021-06-28 Thread Tobias Botens
Hey,

during the installation of x2go on Windows 10 we are getting Windows 
UAC-Prompts. 

We want to distribute the Software via our Software-Distribution Product. How 
can we achieve a "silent Installation" without these prompts. If needed, we 
will create the firewall-Rules manually in our deployment-process. 

Kind Regards

Tobias Botens
