Thanks for using X2Go... \fR .fi .if n \{\ .RE .\} .TP \*(T<\fB\-\-background=\fR\*(T> Use a custom/branded background image (SVG format) for X2Go Client's main window (i.e. replace the blue gradient area in X2Go Client by some background of your own (business/workgroup/project). .SH SESSION PROFILE DEFAULTS You can set certain defaults for session profiles via command line switches using the following options: .TP \*(T<\fB\-\-user\fR\*(T> Pre-selection of user at client startup (LDAP mode only). .TP \*(T<\fB\-\-command=\fR\*(T> Default command for session startup. .TP \*(T<\fB\-\-ssh\-port\fR\*(T> Use this default TCP/IP port for connection (default: 22). .TP \*(T<\fB\-\-ssh\-key\fR\*(T> Use this SSH private key file by default. .TP \*(T<\fB\-\-autologin\fR\*(T> By default, search for standard SSH key file names or try using an SSH agent. .TP \*(T<\fB\-\-link\fR\*(T> Set default link type (modem,isdn,adsl,wan or lan, default: adsl). .TP \*(T<\fB\-\-pack\fR\*(T> Set default pack method (default: '16m-jpeg'). .TP \*(T<\fB\-\-quality\fR\*(T> Set default image quality(0-9, default: 9). .TP \*(T<\fB\-\-set\-kbd\fR\*(T> Overwrite current keyboard settings, no override by default. .TP \*(T<\fB\-\-kbd\-layout\fR\*(T> Set keyboard layout (default: 'de'). .TP \*(T<\fB\-\-kbd\-type\fR\*(T> Set keyboard type (default: pc105/us, depend on our clients language setup, though). .TP \*(T<\fB\-\-clipboard=\fR\*(T> Set default clipboard mode. .TP \*(T<\fB\-\-geometry=x|fullscreen\fR\*(T> Set default geometry, default '800x600'. .TP \*(T<\fB\-\-dpi=\fR\*(T> set DPI of X2Go Agent to , default set to same as local display. .TP \*(T<\fB\-\-sound\fR\*(T> Activate sound for session, not enabled by default. .TP \*(T<\fB\-\-sound\-system\fR\*(T> Which soundsystem to use: arts, esd, pulse (default: pulse). .TP \*(T<\fB\-\-xinerama\fR\*(T> Use Xinerama by default. .TP \*(T<\fB\-\-session-icon=<128x128px-icon-png-file>\fR\*(T> Use a custom session icon by default. .SH THIN CLIENT OPTIONS The following command line options are primarily interesting if \fBx2goclient\fR is used as a login manager on X2Go thin clients. .TP \*(T<\fB\-\-thinclient\fR\*(T> Let X2Go Client run without window manager. .TP \*(T<\fB\-\-sessionid=\fR\*(T> Pre-selection of a session profile (by its session profile ID) at client startup. .TP \*(T<\fB\-\-session=\fR\*(T> Pre-selection of a session profile (by its session profile name) at client startup. .TP \*(T<\fB\-\-no\-session\-edit\fR\*(T> Disable session editing. .TP \*(T<\fB\-\-pgp\-card\fR\*(T> Use openPGP Card authentication (default: false). .TP \*(T<\fB\-\-external\-login=\fR\*(T> Authenticate via SMART card, path to login notification file. .TP \*(T<\fB\-\-add\-to\-known\-hosts\fR\*(T> Add DSA/RSA host key fingerprint to .ssh/known_hosts in case of "authenticity of server can't be established". .TP \*(T<\fB\-\-read\-exports\-from\fR\*(T> Specifies a directory where some external mechanism (e.g. script) can notify \fBx2goclient\fR on new block devices (CD/DVDs, USB sticks, etc.). .TP \*(T<\fB\-\-haltbt\fR\*(T> Show a "Shutdown" button in the top left corner of X2Go Client. When pressed, X2Go Client will create the file $HOME/.halt. An external script has to watch for this file and trigger a thinclient shutdown once it appears. .SH PORTABLE OPTIONS X2Go Client can be installed on a USB-Flashdrive as a portable applications. If installed that way, the following options support the portable setup of X2Go Client: .TP \*(T<\fB\-\-portable\fR\*(T> Start X2Go Client in "portable" mode. This implies... (TODO). .TP \*(T<\fB\-\-home=\fR\*(T> Set the users home directory. This is the directory where X2Go Client will store settings and cache files. .TP \*(T<\fB\-\-session\-conf=\fR\*(T> Path to alternative session profile config (default: $HOME/.x2goclient/sessions). .TP \*(T<\fB\-\-clean-all-files\fR\*(T> In portable mode, X2Go Client removes several directories it has created (and probably directories you don't want to have removed on a normal system): \fI$HOME/.ssh $HOME/ssh $HOME/.x2go\fR If \fI\-\-clean\-all\-files\fR is used on the command line, also the directory containing the configuration files of X2Go Client gets removed: \fI$HOME/.x2goclient\fR .SH BROKER OPTIONS In case you want to retrieve \fBx2goclient\fR session profiles from an X2Go Session Broker use the following options: .TP \*(T<\fB\-\-broker\-url=\fR\*(T> Specify the of the X2Go Session Broker. X2Go Client can access http:// and ssh:// style URLs. Syntax of for HTTP brokerage: http(s)://:@:/path/to/broker Syntax of for SSH brokerage: ssh://:@:/usr/bin/x2gobroker (or any executable that provides the broker via SSH). .TP \*(T<\fB\-\-broker\-cacertfile=\fR\*(T> Specify a special (self-signed) root-CACert file that shall get used when connecting to an X2Go Session Broker via https (SSL). .TP \*(T<\fB\-\-broker\-noauth\fR\*(T> The X2Go Session Broker is accessible without authentication. .TP \*(T<\fB\-\-broker-krblogin\fR\*(T> Login to X2Go Session Broker via GSSAPI. Only supported with ssh:// broker URLs. .TP \*(T<\fB\-\-auth\-id=\fR\*(T> Use this for authenticating against the X2Go Session Broker. This option mostly makes sense together with \fI--broker-autologin\fR or \fI--broker-ssh-key\fR. .TP \*(T<\fB\-\-broker\-autologin\fR\*(T> For SSH based X2Go Session Brokers. If an SSH agent is available or default key files exist then try those for authentication against the X2Go Session Broker. .TP \*(T<\fB\-\-broker\-autologoff\fR\*(T> Enforce re-authentication against X2Go Session Broker after a session has been suspended or terminated. .TP \*(T<\fB\-\-broker\-ssh\-key=\fR\*(T> For SSH based X2Go Session Brokers. Full path to a valid SSH private key file. .TP \*(T<\fB\-\-broker\-name=\fR\*(T> Currently unused... .TP \*(T<\fB\-\-connectivity-test\fR\*(T> Run a connectivity test against X2Go Session Broker. Not supported by all broker implementations. .TP \*(T<\fB\-\-change-broker-pass\fR\*(T> Send a change-password request to an X2Go Session Broker. Not supported by all broker implementations. .SH LDAP OPTIONS (deprecated) NOTE: LDAP support won't be continued in X2Go Client 2 (next generation of X2Go Client). .PP A slightly different approach than X2Go Client's LDAP functionality is available via the X2Go Session Brokerage feature. .PP In case you want to control \fBx2goclient\fR via an LDAP server use the following options: .TP \*(T<\fB\-\-ldap=\fR\*(T> Start with LDAP support (disabled by default). Example: --ldap=ldapserver:389:o=organization,c=de .TP \*(T<\fB\-\-ldap1=\fR\*(T> Failover LDAP URI No. 1. .TP \*(T<\fB\-\-ldap2=\fR\*(T> Failover LDAP URI No. 2. .TP \*(T<\fB\-\-ldap-printing\fR\*(T> Allow client side printing in LDAP mode. .PP .SH AUTHOR This manual has been written by Mike Gabriel for the X2Go project (http://www.x2go.org).
