- | ====== | + | ===== Usage ===== |
- | + | ||
- | With the desktopsharing function of X2go you can have full-access the desktop from somebody else like with programs as Remote Desktop. TeamViewer or LogMeIn. You can see an X2go session from somebody else, but you can also see a normal desktop. | + | |
- | + | ||
- | To do this you need access to port 22. So maybe you need to make a portforwarding on your router. Portforwarding is not discussed here on this page. | + | |
- | + | ||
- | ===== The Server Side ===== | + | |
- | + | ||
- | First you need to install the package x2godesktopsharing on the server (the machine you want to access, this can be a very normal PC): | + | |
- | + | ||
- | < | + | |
- | aptitude install x2godeskstopsharing | + | |
- | </ | + | |
- | + | ||
- | Then there is a new application in the menu. I can find it with " | + | |
- | + | ||
- | < | + | |
- | $ x2godesktopsharing | + | |
- | </ | + | |
- | + | ||
- | After starting the application and some searching, you will find a new icon on your panel. On the top the icon it's blue, and under it is white with a red cross in it. When you right-click on the butten you can activate the desktop sharing there. After activating other people who can login, can access your desktop. | + | |
- | + | ||
- | ===== The Client Side ===== | + | |
- | + | ||
- | On the client I have only experience with "x2go client" | + | |
- | + | ||
- | < | + | |
- | aptitude install x2goclient | + | |
- | </ | + | |
- | + | ||
- | Start it and make a new session with " | + | |
- | + | ||
- | Give it a session name, a host name, and the username from the user you want to access. In " | + | |
- | + | ||
- | Then start the session by clicking on it. Give the password of the user, and start the session. After this you will see a new window where you can choose which running session you want, in most cases there is only one. Choose the session. | + | |
- | + | ||
- | After this you will login on the desktop from the other. When you have a monitor what's smaller then the other side, it will be maybe a bit difficult to read. | + | |
- | + | ||
- | Realize that when you want to stop the session and the other is running a normal PC, you will stop the complete PC when you do a shutdown! | + | |
