Folks I'm looking for a way to access a GUI desktop on a Centos 7 server from a Windows client. I have tried: - X2go from EPEL (fails immediately, apparently they are working on a solution, but...) - Freenx (doesn't exist for EL7) Both the above work fine with Centos 6. Are there any known working solutions? Thanks... Mystified but not urgent in San Francisco David

Folks I have been unable to get X2go to work on a Centos 7 server. I have tried both the out-of-the-box GNOME desktop and the Xfce as well. In both cases, the view from the client is that the screen starts to appear, then goes away. On the server, I see the following messages in /var/log/messages (I have erased the user name and replaced it with XXX). The server is running as a virtual

I have installed x2goserver on a Centos8 server. Yesterday, after the installation I was able to connect by means of x2go. Today I get the following error ( /var/log/messages) /usr/bin/x2gostartagent[2677]: no free display number available, cannot start new session. Has anyone had the same problem? Thanks. Bye Stefano

I installed a new Linux server for remote user access using Ubuntu 14.04 and x2goserver, authenticating against our existing Samba 4.2.2 AD server. All was working beautifully for a couple of days, with myself and one other user. Then the other user's AD password expired, after which when they attempted to log in winbindd spiralled out of control. Ended up with several 100% CPU winbindd

I am nearing the end of a project that moved our disparate services and hosts onto kvm virtualized servers. What I am now contemplating is setting up my desktop as a virtual host and using one of the guests as my primary workstation. However, I am not sure how this would work in practice. I am accustomed to working with virtual instances via ssh (a terminal window) and with my desktop system in

Can anyone comment on the best remote GUI approach for C7 yet? X2goserver is in epel but when I tried it on the RHEL beta it only worked with a KDE desktop due to the 3d requirement of Gnome3. -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell at gmail.com

Is anyone using x2go on Centos - and if so, is there any reason to think about switching from freenx? The old NX client for mac was a powerpc binary and is no longer supported under mountain lion - and their new alpha release crashed my mac after an OSX update so I'm curious if there is anything better around. (And I didn't like the way the new mac version changed the screen scaling

Hi all, I have installed a CentOS7 vm in my home server with all graphical tools installed: Gnome, Chrome, Tor Borwser, etc. My idea is to run these graphical applications from two MacOSX desktops. What I am looking for is something similar like Microsoft RDP services that supports copy and paste between client and server, sound, clipboard, etc ... I have seen a possible solution using xrdp:

Folks I have several remotely-located servers, donated by folks not all of whom are computer geeks, let-alone Linux aware. In earlier versions of Centos, I directed them to perform a minimal NetInstall (not too difficult to direct over the phone), and then issue two commands after the first boot. One was a 'curl' to download a script of mine, and the second was a dot-command to run

I''m trying to get linux domU going with opensolaris ''130.

Hi everyone. Since a few days I can't connect with a server via x2go. I get the following error message: Connection failed. Failed to start X2Go Agent session with ID stefsimo-60-1560249248_stDMATE_dp24. X2Go Agent terminated unexpectedly. Aborting session startup. Did you get the same error? cat /etc/centos-release CentOS Linux release 7.6.1810 (Core) cat /proc/version Linux version

Has anyone managed to get the x2go server working on CentOS 6.7? I started testing x2go from EPEL under 6.6, and it worked well. Then I didn't use it in 6 months plus, eventually upgraded the machine to 6.7, and it's no longer working. Both Windows and Linux clients error out with "Connection failed. 0: Event not found." A Linux client run with the debug option reports:

Hi, I am pretty new to libvirt, but have succeeded in setting up two VM's, Windows 10 and ClearOS (a Centos derivative) and they both have the same issue. I have installed both of them with a UK English keyboard, but the host machine is remote and in the US with a US locale. When I access either through VNC (I've tried TightVNC and VNC-Viewer), a number of my keys don't map

Dear Gurus If any of you have been successful in using an iPad as a VNC client with SSH tunnelling, I'd love to know how it's done. I have tried using the iSSH application, but without success. I know that the server is accessible from a Windows client (using TigerVNC), via an SSH tunnel, so the server is properly configured. If you have a working example, please let me know what

I know what you're thinking - why?!? Im not going to go into detail, but in short why not! :D I have an industry app which I wont name yet, but is a relatively standard CAD-like 3D windows application. Im using x2go based on Nomachine/NX libraries for remote X desktop to Ubuntu. My 3D application tests for opengl or directx when it starts. At the moment when run with wine the

There seems to be another outage of the Vienna CRAN server [1] though from what I can from afar not related to DNS outage [2]. Could anyone confirm and possibly alert the local team in Vienna?

It's free and so much better than x2go it's hard to even compare the two. It is ?free? only for noncommercial use. It isn?t open

Me, I?ll take GNOME 3 and all its warts over CDE any day of the week. CDE never would have *evolved* to be the equal of GNOME; it had to be destroyed to make room. But it doesn't matter how pretty Gnome3 is on some other box.
