I don't see how these could intervene here. This box is setup fresh and I didn't
set any firewall or other access restrictions yet. This is here in my local LAN
and I can connect with SSH just fine. As I'm using the same port with NX that 
should be open for it as well. I tried with SSL now, same result.

Thank you very much for trying, so it's probably not the client. Not sure,
if I should consider this good or bad ;-)

Nothing. It smells like a had a firewall on that machine, but I don't.
I think it's time for Ethereal. Haven't used it since it got renamed. I 
installed the latest Wireshark incarnation yesterday. I'll see later today
if I can find something out this way.

Thanks for your efforts so far!

Kai
