Can you log in to the nx account using the right key without entering a 
password?  Try this:

ssh -i /usr/NX/share/client.id_dsa.key -l nx mymachineip

(replace mymachineip with your real host name or IP address, of course). 
  The ssh key your NX client is using must match the one on the NX 
server, or you'll get exactly the error you're having.

Hope this helps,
