+x2goserver (X2Go Remote Desktop solution)
+
X2Go enables you to access a graphical desktop of a computer over
a low bandwidth (or high bandwidth) connection.
+
X2Go is a Remote Desktop solution, which is not to be confused
with Microsoft Remote Desktop Connection.
+
You can connect from a computer running Linux, Windows or MacOS X.
-Multiple users/clients can access a single X2Go Server at the same
-time, with each user/client having an individual Desktop session
-by default; however, desktop sharing is possible.

This is the server.
This script requires a 'x2gouser' user/group to exist before running.
You can create these using:
-groupadd -g 290 x2gouser
-useradd -u 290 -g 290 -c "X2Go Remote Desktop" -M -d /var/lib/x2go -s /bin/false x2gouser
-groupadd -g 291 x2goprint
-useradd -u 291 -g 291 -c "X2Go Remote Desktop" -m -d /var/spool/x2goprint -s /bin/false x2goprint
-chown x2goprint:x2goprint x2goprint
-chmod 0770 x2goprint
+ groupadd -g 290 x2gouser
+ useradd -u 290 -g 290 -c "X2Go Remote Desktop" -M -d /var/lib/x2go -s /bin/false x2gouser
+ groupadd -g 291 x2goprint
+ useradd -u 291 -g 291 -c "X2Go Remote Desktop" -m -d /var/spool/x2goprint -s /bin/false x2goprint
+ chown x2goprint:x2goprint x2goprint
+ chmod 0770 x2goprint
Before running the server, you have to initialize the internal database:
-x2godbadmin --createdb
+ x2godbadmin --createdb
If you want to run the server at boot, just run:
-chmod +x /etc/rc.d/rc.x2goserver
+ chmod +x /etc/rc.d/rc.x2goserver
