[FreeNX-kNX] Cannot reconnect session after regular system update on OSX client

[Tamás Pusztai]

Dear All,

 Thanks for the hint, Marcelo.

 I've just tried the workaround offered by NoMachine (http://www.nomachine.com/tr/view.php?id=TR03H02334) and it works. However, it's better to upgrade to the new version of NxClient (3.4.0-8) just made available, which fixes this problem. I've tried that, too.

 Regards,

 Tamás

I'm not sure that the problem is here, but I find it strange that nxclient seems to look for '/tmp/launch-gAREQO/org.x', but I have '/tmp/launch-gAREQO/org.x:0'.

Can't you only reconnect an existing session or is it also impossible to create a new session on you server from this client?
