  === How it works in detail ===
  
  If X2Go Client is used for proxying an RDP session, the session start up goes like this:
  
-   o an X2Go Client machine connects to an X2Go Server
-   o On this X2Go Server the '''rdesktop''' is installed
-   o From this X2Go Server the MS Windows machine (Terminal Server or Workstation) can be reached (maybe on some internal network)
-   o X2Go Client launches an X2Go Session and calls the '''rdesktop''' command inside this session (with a special set of
parameters)
-   o The '''rdesktop''' RDP client connects to the MS Windows machine, starts/resumes an RDP session there
-   o The RDP client's Windows desktop window appears inside the X2Go Session
-   o Whatever appears in the X2Go Session gets displayed on the X2Go Client machine
-   o the X2Go Client can now work on an MS Windows machine

  === Benefits of X2Go-proxied RDP Sessions ===
  
  There are some benefits gained from this approach compared to direct RDP session setups.
  
-   o Traffic between server/client is always encrypted via SSH
-   o On low bandwidth lines, an X2Go-proxied RDP Session might scale better than the native RDP protocol
-   o The proxying X2Go Server can be used as a firewall pass-through gateway and you can connect to machines behind that firewall
-   o All SSH-related extra authentication features (SSH pubkey/privkey, OTP authentication, GPG-SmartCard authentication, etc.) can be used for the connection to the proxying X2Go Server (i.e. double secure your network)

  === Session Setup for X2Go-proxied RDP Sessions ===
  
- TODO
+ {{ :wiki:advanced:tce:x2go-proxied-rdp.png?300|}}
+ 
+ In X2Go Client's session profile manager, select the following parameters:
+ 
+   * profile name: a descriptive name for that session profile
+   * hostname: the hostname of the RDP-proxying X2Go Server
+   * username: username on the RDP-proxying X2Go Server
+   * SSH authentication features: if appropriate, select a private SSH key, enable agent based authentication or use GSSAPI
+   * Session Type: //Connect to Windows terminal server//
+   * Session options: Server: IP address of the MS Windows machine
+   * Advanced options...: '''-u <windows-username> -d <windows-domain-name>'''
