As a regular user you shouldn't be able to look into that directory,
so that's normal. Only root and nx can do that.
Interesting (at least to me) is that you get an error concerning a
session that I do not believe it should be looking for. It's like
it's attempting to reattach to a session that doesn't exist and then
it fails. I could be incorrect, but at this point it's simply a data
point.
On the client machine (assuming it is linux), have you removed all
session data from the user's home directory? By default this is
~/.nx/cache-unix-windowmanagername (for you that is likely gnome)
and ~/.nx/letter-hostname-screen-somerandomhashIthink/
Don't remove the config directory or else you'll have to set up the
nx information again. See if that doesn't fix the issue. It may not,
and I'm sorry if it doesn't, but I am not entirely sure about this
particular issue.
If the client machine is a windows machine there is a .nx directory,
but I am not sure where it's kept. C:\documents and
settings\user\.nx maybe. That is where it resides on my windows
install at work on XP. I may or may not have changed the directory
so you might have to look around a bit.
