OK so, sounds like it's just shadowing not windows . . .

This sounds like a Linux issue. Was there an error message??
Did the same configuration work without an NX involvement??

No windows error messages . . .

Well do you see :-
 
Xlib:  extension "MIT-SHM" missing on display ":XXXX.0".

. . .in your logs ?? Are you running an old nxclient ??

Well . . . 

You report no error messages and your window client
connect fine without shadowing.

You say you managed to get shadowing working from 
Linux, which suggested you know how it works . . .

but
in your original post you are trying to connect
to a Local session.

0 Local BE77ED951144F03C3A18C25774D7E3A1 -------- Running X0 (Local)

NX Shadowing will only connect to another running
NX session.

If you want to connect to your Local session instead,
you need to run a vncserver in your Local session,
select VNC (not Shadow) in nxclient and point it at
the vncserver port.

NX will then speed up your VNC session.

I couldn't say why your Win7 nxclient window is
vanishing, you should just get the black window.
