I ran into this while attempting to run remote Windows sessions as 
well.  Only 2 connections were accepted. After that connections were 
rejected.  I did this some months ago and if I remember correctly, I 
then had to activate Terminal Services and install a License Server 
which then gave me 120 day grace period to install the number of client 
licenses needed.  Then I could make connections.

Some MS links that make it all clear as mud:

I have not revisited this situation recently.  So perhaps someone knows 
a way to do this with x2go without all these licenses.
