Desktop Sharing allows you to take over a local session (:0), or an
already running X2Go Session (usually :50 and upwards).

It will *not* allow logging in when there is no active session already
present on the :n Display that you try to connect to.

For example, even if you have a login manager like gdm or kdm running
on :0, X2GoClient will not be able to "grab" that screen and share it
using Desktop Sharing, as there is no user logged in at that very
moment.  Only *after* logging in, the user's session can be captured
and shared using DS - and once the user logs out, the DS session
terminates.  That's exactly the effect you've mentioned in your first
e-mail to the list, and this is intentional.
