[X2Go-User] Setting up passwordless session

[funk minion]

Using windows client 4.1.2.0, I'm wanting to set up passwordless
authentication. I've followed these instructions....

https://wiki.x2go.org/doku.php/wiki:advanced:authentication:passwordless-ssh

...but am still receiving a small modal dialog box prompting for an account
password."Enter user account password:"

In the settings for the session, "Use RSA/DSA key for ssh connection:"
points to my local private key file and "Try auto login (via SSH Agent or
default SSH key)" is checked

Question: Is 'auto login' required for passwordless login?

Question: Does the term 'default SSH key' reference the id_rsa key created
by the ssh-keygen.exe or something else?

Question: Does passwordless login require the use of Pageant or other
tools, or can it be accomplished solely with x2go settings?

thx.
