So far I know this is not true. (free)NX makes a new user ("nx") and
this user is authenticated trough a publickey and not with passwords.

So anyone using NX logs in as the user "nx" with a public key. After
this, the user "nx" uses a shell called "nxserver", and then you need to
login with a password.
