I stopped using freenx when I found xrdp. yum install xrdp will do it. I find
it much easier to setup and maintain.

here is what the rpm says:

Name       : xrdp
Arch       : x86_64
Version    : 0.5.0
Release    : 0.13.el6
Size       : 240 k
Repo       : epel
Summary    : Open source remote desktop protocol (RDP) server
URL        : http://xrdp.sourceforge.net/
License    : GPLv2+ with exceptions
Description: The goal of this project is to provide a fully functional Linux terminal
            : server, capable of accepting connections from rdesktop and Microsoft's own
            : terminal server / remote desktop clients.
