That's the same with KDE: selecting exit shuts down the KDE
session first, and when that is ended, NX sees it has nothing
more to do and terminates too...

I don't know anything about Fluxbox. But for KDE fullscreen
sessions (inside the hosting KDE Client session), the "close 
button" on the window is not here either (as fullscreen 
sessions are windows without any decorations, frames or 
buttons).

What I do with KDE is this: click on the uppermost, rightmost
"magic pixel" of the fullscreen NX session. This minimizes
the fullscreen window and puts it down into the taskbar as
an button-like representation. Rightclick on the NX-session's
symbol in the taskbar, select "Close". This brings up the
"Suspend or terminate?"-dialog. (Beware, you need to re-maximize
the fullscreen again to see it.)

Hope this helps you to find a workaround for fluxbox too.
