I think, in release x2go will use libssh instead of ssh. <snip> Very interesting. I wonder if that explains the errors Uxbod was encountering when trying to use newer ssh versions on Windows.
Uxbod, does plink provide a Windows based ASKPASS facility? Alex and Heinz, is there any version of X2Go available yet with libssh? Using plink (assuming it supports ASKPASS) would require an awful amount of hacking and conditional formatting of parameters. A consistent, cross-platform API would be so much easier.
