[CentOS] freenx

[Paul Schoonderwoerd]

This is what worked for me on CentOS 4.2:

I followed the advice on Rick Stout's page after reading about problem's 
earlier with the CentOS freenx and nx packages:
http://fedoranews.org/contributors/rick_stout/freenx/
and downloaded these packages from that site:

nx-1.5.0-4.FC3.1
freenx-0.4.4-1.fdr.0

Then, for testing I installed the Linux nxclient package from the 
nomachine.com site (nxclient-1.5.0-135) on the same system (server), imported 
the key and was able to connect and start a second X desktop. (This messes up 
some groupsettings on files in your home-dir so better use a testuser 
account.

I'm not sure if this will solve anything because at first I tested with the 
CentOS packages but with an older client and without importing keys (which 
should work with the included key from Nomachine.com, but didn't). Does 
anybody know how to get this working on CentOS ? It does work when trying to 
connect to a Knoppix-booted  'nx terminal server' system. It needs a system 
(default knoppix) user though.
