xrdp or x2go for concurrent graphical sessions ?

[Bernd Lentes]

Hi,

I'm looking for a solution that several users can login concurrently to a GUI, each of them having his own desktop.
I'm running Ubuntu 22.04.5 LTS.
I stumbled across Xrdp and X2go.
What do you prefer? Why? What are the advantages and disadvantages?
How is about security ?

Btw: how do I find out which graphical desktop I'm using ?
I normally just work with terminal and ssh.

Thanks.

Regards,


Bernd
