Thanks for your input. Maybe the client ships in a way where it is compiled to only support MACs of hmac-sha1-etm@openssh.com,hmac-sha1 When I add these to my server I can SSH to it and see remote screen with X2GO client. If I change the server's SSHD config and remove the 2 sha1 MACs I can still shh to the server but X2Go client stops working. To get the libssh updated for my OS won't necissarily allow the client to use it if the client was statically compiled using an older version.
