Hello John,

x2go use ssh to login. It does not unset any environment variables or
umask options. If you running (for example ) a Gnome desktop, you
connect to you system
using ssh just as usual and start "gnome-session" using your x2goagent
as display. That's all. if you missing some environment or shell
options, it should be not a issue of x2go but of  desktop environment.
See /usr/bin/x2goruncommand to understand how x2go start desktop
environment.

Best regards,
