[FreeNX-kNX] FreeNX & SuSE 9.3

[Art Fore]

I have been trying to get FreeNX going for about 16 hours with no
success. I have a headless server running suse 9.3 with nx server from
the suse DVD installed. I ran the nxsetup --install
--setup-nomachine-key, setup the  keys with keygen and copied them to
the appropriate file on the server. When I run nxserver --status on the
server, I get
NX>100 NXSERVER Version 1.4.0.03 OS (GPL)
NX>110 NX Server is running
NX>999 Bye

I have tried the nomachine client and the KNX that comes with suse 9.3.
With the nomachine client I get

NX> 203 NXSSH running with pid: 24411
NX> 285 Enabling check on switch command
NX> 285 Enabling skip of SSH config files
NX> 200 Connected to address: 192.168.0.4 on port: 22
NX> 202 Authenticating user: nx
NX> 208 Using auth method: publickey
NX> 204 Authentication failed

I check out the archives and found one thread on suse 9.3, which I
followed without success.

I turned off both client and server firewalls, I can ssh from the client
to the server. 

Tried some items from the suse mail list, again without success. Always
the same error.

It is not clear on the key files. They are all in /home/afore/.ssh on
both machines. Client files are 640 permissions, server files are 644.
Tried the opposite also, no change.

I am about to give up on FreeNX. Can someone help?
