[FreeNX-kNX] Logs?

That's a good question.  I'm not aware of any way of selecting from
the NoMachine client GUI which key you want to use when connecting.

Here's a few options to consider:

-The KNX client may have an option for selecting keys (I haven't tried
it yet).  If it doesn't have it yet, it may have it in the future.

OR

-Keep all the keys in the share directory like this:
client.id_dsa.key-server1
client.id_dsa.key-server2
client.id_dsa.key-server3
Then manually copy the key into place before connecting with nxclient:
cp /usr/NX/share/client.id_dsa.key-server1 /usr/NX/share/client.id_dsa.key

OR

-After nxsetup completes, replace the key that it generated with a
common key that will be used on all NX servers that you want your
client to connect to.  That way, the client only needs one key and can
connect to multiple servers.
