X2Go Component: src:pyhoca-cli
Version: 0.6.0.0-0x2go1
Status: RELEASE
Date: Tue, 18 Sep 2018 19:14:37 +0000
Fixes: 984 1287 1308
Changes:
 pyhoca-cli (0.6.0.0-0x2go1) RELEASED; urgency=medium
 .
   * New upstream version (0.5.99.1).
     - Port to Python3. (Fixes: #1287).
     - Add --force-password command line switch to override SSH key detection
       code.
     - Add --try-resume cmd line option and feature.
     - setup.py: Fix version string detection. (Copy+paste flaw...).
     - Fix duplicate password prompt. Regression fix.
     - keyboard handling: Switch to kbd-type auto and kbd-layout null. Should
       auto-detect the client-side keyboard in the X2Go session just fine.
     - pyhoca-cli main programme: Check for DISPLAY env var being set and having
       a usable / expectable value.
     - Add --forward-sshagent / -A cmdline option for enabling SSH agent
       forwarding.
     - Entirely rewrite PyHocaCLI.authenticate() function. (Fixes: #1308).
     - Fix --share-local-folders (aka -F) option and really mount shared folders.
       (Fixes: #984).
     - Make important options work like with OpenSSH's command-line client.
       E.g. pyhoca-cli -l <user> -i <key> -A <host>. This can still be improved
       but helps for now a big deal.
   * debian/rules:
     + Build for Python3, not Python2.
     + Switch to pybuild DH build system.
     + Enforce Python3 build, fix FTBFS.
     + Ignore failures during dh_auto_clean. Helps with build envs that don't have
       python3-setuptools installed when building source packages.
   * debian/control:
     + Fix src:pkg header part.
     + Switch to python3-* dependencies.
     + White-space fix.
     + Bump versioned D (pyhoca-cli): python-x2go (>= 0.5.99.0~).
     + Drop D (pyhoca-cli): python3-argparse. Part of stdlib in Python3
       these days.
   * debian/{control,compat}: Bump to DH version level 9.

Subject: "--auth-attempts 0" doesn't deactivate interactive authentication

Date: Thu, 19 Jul 2018 12:01:04 +0000

Package: pyhoca-cli
Version: 0.5.0.4

When I call "pyhoca-cli" with the following options:
	"--password" followed by a wrong password
	"--auth-attempts 0"
I get a password prompt which has actually no effect even if I enter the correct password.

Example:
pyhoca-cli --server 192.168.1.2 -u exampleUser --password 'BADPASSWORD' --auth-attempts 0 -L --libdebug

Output:
[...]
pyhoca-cli[1028] (x2goclient-pylib) NOTICE: initializing X2Go session...
pyhoca-cli[1028] (x2gocontrolsession-pylib) NOTICE: connecting to [192.168.1.2]:22

pyhoca-cli[1028] (x2goguardian-pylib) DEBUG: calling session cleanup on profile Pyhoca-Client_Session for terminal session:

Expected behavior:
no password prompt
just exit with returnCode: 203

Suggestion:
In "PyHocaCLI.authenticate()" let "force_password_auth" only become true if "auth_attempts" is greater than 0.

System:
"Oracle Linux Server 7.4"
