Make sure you tunnel everything (sound/folder shares) through SSH.  
Then you only need a single ACCEPT rule for your X2goClient subnet to  
the X2goServer IP on your X2goServer's SSH port (22 by default). Make  
sure your client boxes (Windows) individually allow incoming  
connections on localhost (e.g. depending on the amount of users the  
TPC/IP ports 30000-30099). Check your Windows firewall on each client  
for this.

As far as I know, likewise-open utilizes Samba/Winbind  
(libnss-winbind) for Unix integration into an AD domain. If you just  
have one AD domain, I recommend getting rid of the domain component in  
libnss user names completely. Refer to the samba option

winbind use default domain = YOURDOMAIN

(see smb.conf for this).

Especially Samba's default winbind separator (a '\' backslash  
character between domain and username) is not really handy for  
deriving path names in X2go. If you do not want to get rid of the  
domain string completely, you might want to modify the winbind  
separator (see smb.conf, as well).

Just some ideas,
Mike
