====== Getting X2Go ======

X2Go consists of several software components. The minimal requirement is X2Go Server (on the terminal server) and X2Go Client / PyHoca-GUI (on the client machine).

The minimal X2Go setup installs out of the box. But note that X2Go can be highly customized by a series of X2Go add-on components.


===== The Client-Side of X2Go  =====

At the time of writing there are two client applications available for X2Go: X2Go Client (the native client), and Pyhoca-GUI (a Python based system tray applet for X2Go).
