Hi,

i think X-display will work but sound- (and samba) redirect will be fail with
a windowmanager in the nxclient like "ssh -X lvs-server /usr/bin/startkde". You
should have a nx-tunnel to the LVS (maybe more ?)

Fabian, i will have a closer look to your new nxversion. Question: Why so
you implement the loadbalance+clustering for your own ? I asked
because there are projects like LVS having the main-focus on this topics and
and integration would be (maybe ;-) easier.

I'm curious about your cluster-version.

regards

Danny
