Hi, Why would you start manually the NX server ? The process should be :

• SSH login request by the client
  • keys exchange for user "nx" (see /etc/passwd), which, once

authenticated, has for shell "/usr/bin/nxserver" on the server + then, "normal" SSH authentication for user.

By the way, options passed to "nxserver" are preceded by "--", like in "nxserver --passwd", not "nxserver passwd"

Cheers, Stef

Hi All,

I am new to Centos so please bare with me :-(

I installed Freenx using yam install freenx

Everything worked fine (or so it seemed)

When I ran 'nxserver start' I got

NX> 100 NXSERVER - Version 1.4.0-44 OS (GPL) NX> 500 Error: Function start not implemented yet. NX> 999 Bye

I have restarted sshd but it still doesn't work. Anyone have a Howto for Centos? Any ideas?

Thanks in advance

Paul

Have you read the directions? This may be worth a read for you. http://wiki.centos.org/centoswiki/FreeNX

Make sure you don't have bash-completion installed (it's an rpm from dag/dries or rpmforge) - I know it used to hose freenx server in a weird manner similar (if not identical) to this...

Thanks for all the help. I am nearly there :-)

I now connect, authenticate and then it closes with this error
