Bug#761398: x2go is the right solution for me
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
Since yesterday I have been doing some research about doing XDMCP over SSH, which turned
out to be not workable, because SSH does not support tunnelling UDP-connections.
Then, upon looking around some more, I found x2go:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X2Go
his page does not mention Packages for Jessie, but they are there:
http://wiki.x2go.org/doku.php/wiki:repositories:debian
This is what I added to /etc/apt/sources.list:
> deb http://packages.x2go.org/debian jessie main
Then following the documentation there:
http://wiki.x2go.org/doku.php/doc:newtox2go#installation_and_use
http://wiki.x2go.org/doku.php/doc:installation:x2goserver
http://wiki.x2go.org/doku.php/doc:installation:x2goclient
I had a workable remote connection quite quickly.
This is actually very feature-rich, provides a shared clipboard and sound-output and works
over SSH by default. Very nice indeed.
- From my perspective the problem is actually solved already, because I have something now,
that actually works. I recommend this.
