Thank you for your help. Server is installed and client can connect.
After replacing the x2go.repo and installing the fuse and pwgen packages I was able to successfully install x2goserver and xsession.
Great! Yeah, sshfs and pwgen may be missing. They are part of EPEL, though, so I'm not too inclined to add it to the extras repository.
Lastly, what is the best session type to use by the client? kde, gnome, xfce?
The general answer is: http://wiki.x2go.org/doku.php/doc:de-compat
More in-depth: RHEL/CentOS 6 ship GNOME 2.x, which is still supported. Later versions of GNOME 3.x are not, so be careful with that one, especially on RHEL/CentOS 7. For these distros, take a look at MATE, a GNOME 2 fork with wonderful support (mainly because the project embraces X2Go and Mike#1 is working as a Debian Developer on MATE, too.)
XFCE is always a safe bet.
KDE 3 and 4 should be working fine (maybe with quirks outlined on http://wiki.x2go.org/doku.php/doc:faq:start#how_do_i_customize_font_sizes_in... )
