#DebianX2go

##Description

This Dockerfile creates a docker image and once it's executed it creates a container that runs X2GO server and SSH services.

The ssh is used to provide you encrypted data communication between the docker container and your local machine.

X2Go enables you to access a graphical desktop of the container over a low bandwidth (or high bandwidth) connection.

##How do you use this image ?

$ git clone https://github.com/martinwangjian/debian-x2go.git
$ cd DebianX2go/[setup]
$ docker build -t [yourimagename] .

###Running the docker image created ####With the password generated during runtime

$ CONTAINER_ID=$(docker run -d -p 2222:22 [yourimagename])

####With the preset password ( root:root dockerx:mellon)
