[Bio-Linux] Several concurrent users to BioLinux8 as Headless VM on Ubuntu14.04?

[Xavier de Pedro]

Thanks Tony!

Thanks was the key information: I re-visited old attempts to connect to
the virtual machine through ssh and this time I managed to do so with
some port forwarding magic. Therefore, it works the solution using just
sandard X2Go ssh access (through a different port)!

Thanks for the hint

Xavier
