Hi, I wonder if there is step-by-step guide to set up a simple x2go one server ubuntu to print from the wan (without using vpn conection). If you use this guide http://www.x2go.org/doku.php/wiki:components:printing the server works right if you are printing from the same net or connected by vpn connection. What's port have you open in the firewall? Is there some extra configuration to do it? I tried opening ports in /usr/bin/x2gostartagent (the specified and the next 100 more) but client side doesn't receive the file after you print.
X2Go client-side printing as described on the wiki page you named should work out-of-the-box.
The printing works like this: 1. x2goclient creates a rev port forwarding tunnel (SSH) between server+client2. x2gomountdirs (server script) mounts an SSHfs share through this tunnel. It mounts a client-side folder into the home directory of the user logged on to the X2Go server
3. you print... via a printer using the cups-x2go virtual driver4. cups-x2go creates a ps file and a job ticket in ~x2goprint of the X2Go server.
5. the server-side command x2goprint copies the job and ps file to the SSHfs mounted share (so now, it is on the client side)
6. a watch thread in x2goclient wakes up and notices the incoming files (job + ps -> actually a compressed PDF)
7. x2goclient opens the printer dialogNote that you have to enable X2Go printing in the session profile with x2goclient.
Hope that helps (with debugging).
