OK ... I built and installed / tested the 1.5.0 server RPM for CentOS-4
i386.  It is now posted to the main server and syncing to the mirrors.

in 15-20 minutes, nx-1.5.0-0.centos4.i386.rpm and
freenx-0.4.4-1.centos4.noarch.rpm should be available at:

http://mirror.centos.org/centos/4/extras/i386/RPMS/

See this article for install instructions:
