kNX is very old and mostly uses the 1.3 protocol.  It does not support 
the new SSH tunneling from 1.4 and any protocol changes from 1.5.

Even though the clients do not link to the nomachine libraries, they do 
control the communication protocol which changes between versions.

I would suggest that instead of fixing the protocol in kNX, it makes 
more sense to have kNX use the nxc library so that protocol changes can 
be shared across clients.
