Run "ssh -R 12345:localhost:22 user at client" on the server (see man  
page of ssh client for correct usage of -R option) and open up a  
reverse tunnel from some port (e.g. 12345) on the client to port 22 on  
the server (to be more precise, localhost:22).

Then configure X2Go Client on the client to connect to "Host:  
localhost" and "Port: 12345" and you have your X2Go session ready to  
roll.
