[FreeNX-kNX] session test failed

[Doug Burks]

A few things to try:
1)  It looks like you've set your NX client Desktop setting to
Unix-Custom-xterm.  Have you tried doing a full Gnome or KDE session?
2)  Have you checked "Enable SSL encryption of all traffic" in the NX client?
3)  It looks like you're connecting to port 5000.  Can you ssh to port
5000 on the FreeNX server and login with the same username/password
you put in NX client?  Have you changed the following line in nxserver
to let it know that ssh is no longer listening on port 22?
SSHD_AUTH_PORT="22"
4)  Attempt an NX connection and then do:
tail /var/log/messages
tail /var/log/secure

Thanks,
Doug
