I am a bit confused re. the discrepancy between wiki and actual behaviour of x2godesktop sharing: x the wiki [1] reads that With the desktopsharing function of X2go you can have full-access the desktop from somebody else... x when I (USER_B) connect from a remote machine with x2goclient to "local desktop" (USER_A logged in on tty7 of x2goserver), the USER_A's session is shown in the lists of sessions available for sharing, however the button "Full Access" is greyed-out and cannot be clicked. So USER_B is only allowed to view the USER_A's deskto. x having looked at x2godesktopsharing.git/sharetray.cpp, I can see^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ x2goclient.git/onmainwindow_part2.cppthat this is due to "bShadow->SetEnabled ( user==getCurrentUname() );" and have verified that the following patch removes the limitation: === --- onmainwindow_part2.cpp<---->2011-11-25 13:08:10.000000000 +0100 +++ onmainwindow_part2.cpp_mod<>2012-02-19 19:50:36.200838546 +0100 @@ -1132,7 +1132,7 @@ index.row(), D_USER ).data().toString(); bShadowView->setEnabled ( true ); - bShadow->setEnabled ( user==getCurrentUname() ); + bShadow->setEnabled ( true ); } } === Is this intentional behaviour due to the potential security issues mentioned here [2] (anyway, the remote user _can_ recompile the x2goagent to get rid of the limitation)?^^^^^^^^^ x2goclient
I have discussed this with Heinz quite a lot. In X2GoClient this feature is disabled on purpose. In Python X2Go the shadow session feature is also available and it is also possible to have full access sessions between different users.
With pyhoca-cli the shadow session support is already available, with pyhoca-gui I plan to add it for version 0.1.2.0 (i.e. Git HEAD).
@Heinz+Alex: could you please give a statement on this? Thanks, Mike.*** Mike would love to see Milan's patch included in x2goclient, but I cannot commit it without a go from Heinz+Alex.
