the key file client.id_dsa.key must be put in /usr/NX/share

if you have always your Authentication failed issue
can you verify the following
on the PC with nxserver try as root :
#ssh -i /var/lib/nxserver/nxhome/.ssh/client.id_dsa.key nx@<IP address of your PC with nxserver>
you must expect to be connected as nx with the nxserver prompt

if not : look in /var/log/messages
and verify your nx account is not locked (i was in this case ! bud i do not know why ! )

my 2 cents
