PROFILING SESSIONS GLOBALLY

       You  can pre-profile sessions globally using the following options. They will override the options in the
       session profiles.

       --command
              Default command for session startup.

              Pre-selection of session ID at client startup.

       --link Set default link type (modem,isdn,adsl,wan or lan, default: adsl).

       --pack Set default pack method (default: '16m-jpeg').

       --quality
              Set default image quality(0-9, default: 9).

       --set-kbd
              Overwrite current keyboard settings, no override by default.

       --kbd-layout
              Set keyboard layout (default: 'de').

       --sound
              Activate sound for session, not enabled by default.

       --sound-system
              Which soundsystem to use: arts, esd, pulse (default: arts).

THIN CLIENT OPTIONS

       The following command line options are primarily interesting if x2goclient is used as a login manager  on
       X2Go thin clients.

       --session=<session-profile-name>
              Pre-selection of session at client startup.

       --no-session-edit
              Disable session editing.

       --pgp-card
              Use openPGP Card authentication (default: false).

       --external-login=<smartcard-logins>
              Authenticate via SMART card, path to login notification file.

       --add-to-known-hosts
              Add  DSA/RSA  host key fingerprint to .ssh/known_hosts in case of "authenticity of server can't be
              established".

       --read-exports-from
              Specifies a directory where some external mechanism (e.g. script) can  notify  x2goclient  on  new
              block devices (CD/DVDs, USB sticks, etc.).

BROKER OPTIONS

       In  case  you  want to retrieve x2goclient session profiles from an X2Go Session Broker use the following
       options:

       --broker-url=<URL>
              Specify the <URL> of the X2Go Session Broker. X2Go Client can  access  http://  and  ssh://  style
              URLs.

       --broker-noauth
              The X2Go Session Broker is accessible without authentication.

       --auth-id=<USERNAME>
              Use  this  <USERNAME> for authenticating against the X2Go Session Broker. This option mostly makes
              sense together with --broker-autologin or --broker-ssh-key.

       --broker-autologin
              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.

       --broker-autologoff
              Enforce  re-authentication  against  X2Go  Session  Broker  after  a session has been suspended or
              terminated.

       --broker-ssh-key=<SSHPRIVKEY>
              For SSH based X2Go Session Brokers. Full path to a valid SSH private key file.

       --broker-name=<NAME>
              Currently unused...

LDAP OPTIONS (deprecated)

       NOTE: LDAP support won't be continued in X2Go Client  2  (next  generation  of  X2Go  Client).  The  LDAP
       functionality already is fully available via the X2Go Session Brokerage feature.

       In case you want to retrieve x2goclient session profiles from an LDAP server use the following options:

       --ldap Start with LDAP support (disabled by default).

       --basedn
              Base DN to search in LDAP.

       --ldap-server
              LDAP Server hostname.

       --ldap-port
              LDAP Server portnumber (default: 389).

       --ldap-server1
              Failover LDAP Server hostname.

       --ldap-port1
              Failover LDAP Server portnumber (default: 389).

       --ldap-server2
              Failover LDAP Server hostname.
