Yes, because you are using FreeNX the free server implementation.

Very good idea.

It _should_ work with newest CVS (latest snapshot is also fine) of FreeNX, but 
I just found out that its not working yet, because kontact is started in 
background ...

But starting a terminal and starting kontact in it, should work.

This will need some work in CVS. I've opened up a Bug report, to fallback in 
case of unix-custom to the behaviour of commercial nxserver:

Run lsof every ... secs on the socket where nxagent/nxproxy is listening and 
send him a term signal if there is no longer any connection.

I don't like this, but I can't think of a better way at the present moment. 
Perhaps using the -once option could be considered (I think its still 
implemented.)

GFP, if you read this: 

Have you thought about a way how to do that more elegant? I think nxagent 
- -once seems to me the cleanest solution, but as always you most probably had 
some reason to do it the way you did.
