[X2Go-User] config based on mac address

[Stefan]

Nice approach, but I am not shure, if this works.

In discless TCE the /home/x2goclient/ reaches the clients via nfs share.
So it is unique aboth all clients. If we copy the different private keys
to the id_rsa, I think we will have a race condition at boot time.
