Is probably an ssh forward enough?

SSH forwarding does the trick.

So, instead of

ssh -p externalsshport externaluser@externalip.or.domain.name

simply do

ssh -L2222:internal.ip.or.name.of.x2gohost:22 -p externalsshport
externaluser@externalip.or.domain.name

Then connect your X2goclient to internaluser@localhost:2222.

If you already use 2222 for something else, change it to anything available in both the ssh and the x2go call.

If you're using any other port than 22 for your internal connection to your x2gohost, change the 22 in the ssh call.

Of course, you could also consider something more elaborate like routing, firewalling and portforwarding, or a VPN connection.
