Package: X2Go Client

OS:        Windows 8.1 Enterprise x64

Dear Dev. Team,

I switched  on "Kerberos 5 (GSSAPI) authentication" on X2Go client and all
my saved Putty sessions are gone. So Saved session list is empty. I tried
to recover from registry but can't.

You can reproduce like this:

1. Save a session to Putty
2. Set  Kerberos 5 (GSSAPI) authentication
3. Connect to X2Go server

Any idea how can i recover my list?

Best,

Jozsef Kozo

I reproduced this bug on my system:

X2Go Client for Windows 4.0.3.2-20150301-debug
Windows 10 64-bit (build 9926 with latest patches)

I've CC'd the developer who added Windows Kerberos support, Alex.

I've attached the "Sessions" registry key before and after. The test
session I created, uss-phoenix, was clearly deleted.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\SimonTatham\PuTTY\Sessions\uss-phoenix\

However, there is no indication in the debug log (attached) that the
Sessions key or its subkey was touched.

I'll take a look at the x2goclient source code to figure out what is going on.

I think this is a duplicate of bug #625.
There's a snippet of code attached to that bug that looks suspicious.  I think it's trying to delete one session but ends up deleting them all.

This hits me, too, so it would be nice to have it fixed.
My workaround is that I've exported a .reg file of the sessions and import that after starting x2goclient.


Thanks,

I think we have always been using PuTTY 0.63 for this feature.

0.64 just came out, but I have not switched the X2Go Client for
Windows builds over to it. Nor have I tested it with X2Go Client for
Windows.

Are you sure? Windows uses Microsoft SSPI, not GSSAPI.

If you want to rebuild libssh:

1. I have my settings for building libssh here:
http://code.x2go.org/gitweb?p=x2goclient-contrib.git;a=blob;f=libssh/0.6.4-x2go1-mingw482_bin/CMake-Show-My-Changes.txt;h=66391e0cfebf4542938dcd71ab1b87dd9c03eca2;hb=HEAD

2. Rather than building 0.6.4 itself, you need to build 0.6.4 with
these patches. 3 of the patches are the 3 commits made immediately
after 0.6.4 released:
http://code.x2go.org/gitweb?p=x2goclient-contrib.git;a=tree;f=libssh/0.6.4-x2go1-mingw482_src;h=a778703ad4118245b33e759d59b2fcb4fd370c37;hb=HEAD

3. The libssh developers recommend using the HEAD of the 0.6.x branch.
You would still apply the pageant patch from #2. I got the MinGW 4.8.2
patch upstreamed on this branch, so no need to apply that:
https://git.libssh.org/projects/libssh.git/log/?h=v0-6

4. #libssh on FreeNode has multiple developers who are very helpful.

Hm, I think something has changed in Putty since I developed this
feature. I didn't see this behavior earlier, when I used x2go client
parallel to putty on my Windows machine. I'll check this. There is no
need to use plink any more anyway, since libssh used in Windows client
has native GSSAPI support.

Alex

This will be fixed in the 1st release of X2Go Client for Windows 4.0.4.0-x.

The bug appeared to be caused by the fact that for at least 1 of the
SSH Processes, procUuid/uuidStr is null.
Thus HKEY_CURRENT_USER\\Software\\SimonTatham\\PuTTY\\Sessions would
be deleted (recursively) instead of only the uuidStr subkey being
deleted.

I fixed it by simply adding a check to SshProcess::rmPuttyReg(). It
now does nothing if uuidStr is empty or null. This is the safest
solution IMHO.
