What is the correct command?īTW I've got rid of all RealVNC bits: even though I purged it, it still left some directories & files.

those starting with x2go-server), I'm not able to start the service with sudo systemctl rvice start or sudo systemctl rvice: it comes up with service not found for both commands. However, even though I've installed x2goserver and its dependencies (e.g. How is that done between openssh-server & (client) ssh? Re audio & file sharing between the client & the server, you say that I'll need to setup setup bi-directional ssh. Re secured the ssh-server and setup ssh-keys for authentication: can you point me to a post on that? sudo systemctl start ssh.service, sudo systemctl status ssh.service, sudo systemctl enable ssh.service, sudo systemctl is-enabled and ssh-server is looking good. I've done the required sysctl commands e.g. I've installed openssh-server package on my Xubuntu box. I use a custom setting into fvwm, but I wouldn't recommend that for anyone else who isn't addicted to fvwm already. XFCE is a good compromise, but you can use almost any of them except Gnome3 or Unity. The DE must be installed on the remote system. Another key setting is to DE you connect into.

The less bandwidth, the less traffic, and the faster everything performs. For the connection speeds, I usually use 1 less than the truth. With the x2go client, be certain you choose the settings you want. This is easy on the same LAN without any firewalls, but nearly impossible over the internet, since we usually can't have a port forwarded to our desktops from a remote hotel or even most businesses. If you want audio and file sharing between the client and the server, then you'll need to setup bi-directional ssh.

x2go only uses the same ssh TCP port, no others are needed for inbound connections. This isn't strictly required, but I've posted steps in these forums multiple times. Hopefully, you've secured the ssh-server and setup ssh-keys for authentication. It will be started at reboot automatically too. X2go-server runs automatically like any other service/daemon does.
