Re: NX client not connecting

I have NX System (from Suse) installed and running (I think it is still

a friend's WinXP computer. I get a connection timeout error.

[I put in the IP that the public sees in the host field and a user name
with appropriate password. I use the ADSL setting which is the
default]

I enabled SSH (port 22) in the Firewall on my machine. I also have a
D-Link 604 router. Could this be stopping the connection? How do I
check to see if the NX server is actually started on my machine (I
thought it ran correctly using the Demo NX client -- kNX)?

I am using Suse 10.0 if that makes a difference.


Have you pasted the key into the client's key window?

After installing FreeNX:n and running the Setup script

# nxsetup --install --clean --purge

The script returns like this:

Ok, nxserver is ready.

PAM authentication will be done through SSH.
Please ensure that SSHD on localhost accepts password

You can change this behaviour in the
/etc/nxserver/node.conf file.

with the standard key.
Please replace /usr/NX/share/client.id_dsa.key on all

and protect it accordingly. mainitun polun päässä avain:

Now, in the section Warning! you'll see where they is created.

This key needs to be given to the client when you open the
connection.

Configure >advanced setup > copy/paste the key into the window "Key".

Later you can, if you like create new pair of keys like:

# nxkeygen

after which you do the same as above again.
