You appear to have missed a step or configured the auth bits
incorrectly. The NX user is the user who authenticates via ssh, and
you authenticate via nx to the proper session. Go through the steps in
the wiki again carefully and double check the logs to see who you're
attempting to authenticate as. I'd bet you're trying to auth as your
user instead of as the nx user and since the wiki states that only the
nx user is authorized (via the AllowUsers nx statement) auth is
failing for that reason.
