Alex and I had a discussion about this a couple of years ago and there are serious difficulties in handling it. Nonetheless, we need to find a way. What is worse is that the x2goclient keeps trying the same password for each of its connections so if you have account lockout enabled, one trips it very quickly as a single incorrect login using x2goclient multiplies to between three and four incorrect attempts - John
