[ale] Something faster than X-Windows but more secure than VNC server?

So the comment about "1 session"  for X2go concerns me.

Does the "1 session" mean we can only have 1 session on the server that all clients see/access at the same time?

If so it may not be what I need.  We have at least 2 people trying to go into separate sessions of the same X application at the same time from different MS-Windows desktops.   The X application lives on the Linux (RHEL6) server.

Currently what they're doing is launching the X application from their individual PuTTY sessions using X tunneling back to Exceed on their MS Windows desktops.   They can be in the two different application sessions at the same time but the "1 session" comment makes it sound like this may not be possible for X2go.

That is to say I don't want them to share a single application window but rather each have their own.    I'm more interested in the application than the Linux desktop being shared out which is why we were doing it this way but don't mind sharing out two Linux desktops each with its own application session if that is the way it works.

Does Remina or Xrdp allow for multiple desktop sessions to be shared (or more to the point multiple application sessions)?
