I'm (fairly) happy to set up two configurations for x2go.  I'm not
quite sure how to configure the non-LAN one though, how do you
configure x2goclient to go 'via' system X to system Y?  Is that what
x2go's "proxy server" means.

Well, I've tried it and I always end up with an error box saying:-

SSH proxy connection error: Access denied. Authentication that can
continue: publickey,password
Access denied. Authentication that can continue: publickey,password

It *only* uses password authentication, no keys, but even when I enter
the right passwords it repeatedly outpus the above error.
