First, why would you disable key authentication? Or is it just failing because you don't have the right key?
When I read the wiki (http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/FreeNX), it states
Note: If you have disallowed ssh password authentication (which is advised but not mandatory), you need to follow the instructions here. Otherwise you can skip this section.
I checked the ssh configuration file and ssh password authentication is enabled. My Centos 5.5 is an Out of the Box installation, so this setting was not done by me - at least not directly. So my thinking was/is that I could just skip the rest of that part of the setup.
Confused....
Enabling password authentication (the default) does not disable key authentication (also enabled by default). The client offers the key if it has one. If it doesn't, or if the the key fails, a later step prompts for a password.
A quick check for basic key authentication would be to cd to /etc/nxserver and: ssh -i client.id_dsa.key nx@localhost You'll get the usual host key warning the first time but after responding 'yes' you should get a 'HELLO NXSERVER' prompt. Type 'exit' to disconnect. If that works, the NX client should too once the key is installed correctly.
