A fix for this is not so trivial, as it seems. The ,,wrong'' hostname  
is produced by x2golistsession on the server that the x2gobroker-agent  
gets executed on.

Obviously, your external clients call the X2Go Session Broker. The  
session broker knows a list of possible hosts for sending the  
select_session query to. The server that gets asked responds with a  
hostname from the X2Go session DB, that is not necessarily what you  
configured in X2Go Session Broker's x2gobroker-sessionprofiles.conf.

So, what is needed is a backwards mapping between the result that gets  
returned by x2gobroker-agent (i.e. the returned server name /  
hostname) back to the FQDN hostnames configured in X2Go Session  
Broker. The mapping is not bijective here, it is more about guessing  
and shooting blindfolded.

/me scratches his head on the best approach for this...

Mike
