Please note that the factory settings of the PINs are
  PIN = `123456'     Admin PIN = `12345678'
You should change them using the command --change-pin


PIN
Please specify how long the key should be valid.
        0 = key does not expire
     <n>  = key expires in n days
     <n>w = key expires in n weeks
     <n>m = key expires in n months
     <n>y = key expires in n years

You need a user ID to identify your key; the software constructs the user ID
from the Real Name, Comment and Email Address in this form:
   "Heinrich Heine (Der Dichter) <heinrichh@duesseldorf.de>"

Real name: Bert Beispiel
Email address: bert.beispiel@x2go-test.org
Comment: Test user

Be sure, that pinentry-x2go is installed. For test purposes you can use
other pinentry program, but for
x2goclient pinentry-x2go is required


<code>
user@x2goclient$ gpg-agent --enable-ssh-support --daemon --pinentry-program /usr/bin/pinentry-x2go
</code>

<file>
GPG_AGENT_INFO=/tmp/gpg-Xh4lY7/S.gpg-agent:24620:1; export GPG_AGENT_INFO;
SSH_AUTH_SOCK=/tmp/gpg-LO41WU/S.gpg-agent.ssh; export SSH_AUTH_SOCK;
SSH_AGENT_PID=24620; export SSH_AGENT_PID;
</file>

Export SSH environment variables (copy gpg-agent output in console)

<code>
user@x2goclient$ GPG_AGENT_INFO=/tmp/gpg-Xh4lY7/S.gpg-agent:24620:1;
export GPG_AGENT_INFO;
user@x2goclient$ SSH_AUTH_SOCK=/tmp/gpg-LO41WU/S.gpg-agent.ssh; export
SSH_AUTH_SOCK;
user@x2goclient$ SSH_AGENT_PID=24620; export SSH_AGENT_PID;
</code>

You can check the key on your smart card with command:

<code>
user@x2goclient$ ssh-add -l
</code>

<file>
1024 ef:d5:8c:37:cb:38:01:8d:c2:30:00:ac:93:a2:43:98 cardno:000000000042(RSA)
</file>

Copy public part of your key to remote computer

<code>
user@x2goclient$ ssh-copy-id beispielb@x2goserver
</code>

<file>
beispielb@x2goserver's password:
</file>

Now try logging into the machine, with "ssh 'beispielb@x2goserver'", and
check in:

<file>
 .ssh/authorized_keys
</file>

to make sure we haven't added extra keys that you weren't expecting.

Testing ssh connection

<code>
user@x2goclient$ ssh  beispielb@x2goserver
</code>

<file>
Last login: Thu Sep 24 22:00:50 2009 from x2goclient
</file>

<code>
beispielb@x2goserver:~$ exit
</code>

stop gpg-agent:

<code>
user@x2goclient$ kill $SSH_AGENT_PID
</code>

Using smart card authentication with x2goclient

<code>
user@x2goclient$ x2goclient --pgp-card
</code>

or

<code>
user@x2goclient$ x2goclient_gtk --pgp-card
</code>
