The configuration dialogue asks for a private RSA/DSA keys. Unfortunately, when I try to use my RSA SSH key, the connection fails with "not a valid DSA key". Which is correct, but not helpful.
BTW, when browsing for a keyfile, the window title of the file browser says (in german) "select public SSH Key". I guess it still wants a private one instead.
I have also observed this behaviour. My main SSH key is an RSA key and it works fine.
That sentence does not make sense to me. Can you confirm that RSA keys do not work or not?
So problem 1 is the error message: it says DSA (hard-coded) but it can mean RSA/DSA.
The ,,not a valid DSA key'' refers to a local private SSH key that does not get accepted by the server (no matter if the key locally is RSA or DSA).
Well, this means that the error message then is both wrong and not helpful.
What is the exact SSH configuration in the sessions file? Do you use detction of default key names in the config?
This is my the relevant part of my ~/.x2goclient/sessions file
