OK. But what if you connect to nx.company1.com and also to nx.company2.org ?
You are lost...

No it's very different. You spread the *private* key into clients to let 
them connect, not the *public* key like in the SSH case.
The difference is that you have only one account on the UNIX machine 
while with SSH, each user has its own account, and its own 
.ssh/authorized_keys.
