Using html5 client via ssh #4194

I have no idea how you would configure the |
I was just wondering, because I don't want the users install xpra locally. So if they could start xpra on lets say a HPC system, and then simply do ssh port forwarding and work with it in their browsers, would be very nice. Do you maybe know a solution to that? Or how to improve the performance when I used port forwarding? |
Why not just let them connect directly to an https enabled server, that's much easier to deploy. |
I would assume that ssl port might not be open on the HPC system? |
And the SSH port is? Port forwarding will add latency which makes xpra very slow: this problem is known as "TCP over TCP". |
Well, you connect to the HPC systems by ssh, so yes. Do both mostly Often additionally secured via 2-factor-auth etc for example, for our super computer this works: but this isnt working: |
Why would it? |
Ok, I will look into it. However, I just tried port forwarding with -C and its working very well (without its terrible) ! This is how I connect
The only thing I noticed is a constantly see a context menu with "paste" popping up when I click somewhere. Shall I open a new issue for that? |
I think we already have one for that: this is caused by Safari (right?) and there is a workaround in newer versions of the html5 client. |
Its firefox. Should I just try the current html5 master? |
Is it on MacOS? |
Its linux (manjaro) |
I also started the server with --clipboard=No, but that did not help. |
No, you need to turn off the clipboard in the html5 client. |
Can you tell me how? |
From the connect dialog, there is an option. |
Cool! That works :-) Is there a way on the server side to deactivate the clipboard by default? |
You can configure the client via:

Nice! Thanks :-) |
Hi,
I found this interesting article:
https://github.com/Xpra-org/xpra/blob/master/docs/Network/SSH.md
Do you have suggestions how access the html5 client? I used ssh port forwarding, but it is quite slow.
Best,
Thorsten
