I almost gave up myself

Hi Jeremy, thanks for your continued help. Wireshark got me going. That was really really stupid. I had changed the hostname of the machine and mistakenly had typed in the old hostname in the NX client and never realized by watching at it that it was the wrong one. It works now just fine. Cannot see any visible advantage over VNC, though, at least not at LAN speeds. There's one thing that I apparently cannot do with NX and that is attach to an existing non-NX session, right? This would be the main purpose here, attach to the console session from another machine. So, I will have to use VNC for that, anyway.
