Bases: object

X2Go Session Broker’s none authentication mechanism:

Use this authentication mechanism for setups, where users are always granted access to the broker. No authentication is required.

WARNING: Only use this authentication mechanism on private or VPN’ed networks. Don’t use it, if your broker is reachable on the internet or in networks with non-trusted hosts.

NOTE: The broker will not be able to distinguish between users when delivering available servers and session profiles to the user’s X2Go Client application.

authenticate(username, password, **kwargs)

The none authentication mechanism’s authenticate() method always returns True to the user, so X2Go Session Broker access gets always granted.

Parameters

• username (str) – The broker username sent by the client (ignored)

• password (str) – The broker password sent by the client (ignored)

• kwargs (dict) – Any other parameter (for future features’ compatibility, all ignored for now)

Returns

Authentication success (always!)

Return type

bool
