SECURITY INFORMATION / DISCLAIMER

35       Users are advised to not misinterpret X2GoServer's Published
36       Application Mode as a security feature.
37
38       Even when using Published Application Mode, it is still possible for
39       users to locally configure an X2Go Client with any setting they want,
40       and use that to connect.
41
42       So if you're trying to keep users from running a certain application on
43       the host, using Published Application Mode to "lock" the configuration
44       is the *wrong* way.  The users will still be able to run that
45       application by creating their own, local configuration file and using
46       that.
47
48       To keep users from running an application on the server, you have to
49       use *filesystem permissions*.  In the simplest case, this means setting
50       chmod 750 or 550 on the particular application on the host, and making
51       sure the users in question are not the owner and also not a member of
52       the group specified for the application.
