+  * Find out if the remote computer is running x2go server. Not all computers/servers have x2go available.  In the CS department, it's typically just the Linux lab.
   * Try connecting via the command line using SSH to see if you can actually reach the server to which you are trying to connect.
-  * Be sure you have set the correct session type. Most of the CS dept. computers use MATE but some faculty research computers use others.

   * Be sure your client version of x2go is at least 4.1.0. It if gets too far out-of-date there are handshake issues.
   * Check your firewall settings. Sometimes it's set automatically by your anti-virus/malware software.
+  * If you have previously set up public/private key authentication, that may not work properly with x2go.
   * You may need to get yourself a proxy service if connecting from outside of the USA. China, Russia, and parts of Africa and India all have had blocked connections.
   * You can run x2go in debug mode to see a log file that may provide some clues as to what is wrong on your end. If you don't see debug mode, reinstall x2go.

+  * The X11 server must be configured to accept remote sessions in its preferences.
+  * One must also enable a root screen in X11 preferences if one wants truly full screen view in X2Go.

+In x2go settings, be sure the X11 application path and version is correct.
