X2Go Server

A local X.Org installation is not required on the X2Go Server

Connections are handled through the Linux distro’s SSH server

Installation normally consists of adding the X2Go repository for your Linux distro, and then installing the packages. Instructions are here. (A local X.Org installation is not required on the X2Go Server).

Once installed, there is only a tiny service that needs to run in the background. That daemon is a post-session clean-up daemon, but it is not required to launch X2Go sessions. Connections are handled through the Linux distro’s SSH server and the users that are permitted to connect to an X2Go desktop are those that are permitted to login over command-line SSH. If SSH login works, X2Go will work, as well.

X2Go Client

X2Go Client is available for … many Linux distros.

X2Go’s “X Server” is called “nxagent”. It is part of the nx-libs package.
