Hi,
does anyone of you know if there is a way to log into a X2go session automatically by having an USB key plugged in that contains that crypto key to authenticate the session?
Thanks,
Markus

Yes and no. For Windows, you could put the X2GoClient directory on the USB flash drive, add the ssh private key, and add a small batch file that runs x2goclient.exe with the "--portable" option.
The catch is that there is no autorun for USB flash drives (that's a security feature) in Windows, so your users would have to double-click on the batch file.
Using a CD/DVD would probably work, as Windows does support autorun there, IIRC.
Note that a system administrator may change this and e.g. disable autorun completely, so there's no guarantee that it will work in 100% of all cases.
