Hi Gabor,

X2Go does not have a service that needs to be started. As long as the
ssh service is running, a client can connect.

X2Go does have a service though. This service is not 100% necessary
for X2Go to work, but still recommended. On CentOS7, it is called
"x2gocleansessions" and is a systemd service. On Ubuntu 14.04, it is
called "x2goserver" and is an init script.

That said, I think I see a bug on CentOS 7:
"x2gocleansessions." does not seem to be enabled. I will look into this.
I am using x2goserver 4.0.1.15 from EPEL. Technically this test
machine is running RHEL 7.0, not CentOS 7.0.
