[FreeNX-kNX] nxconnect released

[Ben Voigt]

I would very much like a Windows client that plays more nicely with an
existing cygwin installation.  Specifically, it should use the (frequently
updated) X.org Cygwin/X server that is installed as a cygwin package.  It
should have an option to use the XWin_GL server with its advanced
capabilities.  And, it should NOT mess with my cygwin mounts table.  The !M
client always changes /tmp, which means the permissions change and services
fail.

Furthermore, to avoid the complaints concerning different keys for different
servers, it shouldn't specify an identity file (private key) at all.  That
should be handled by ~/.ssh/config as all my other ssh keys are.

These changes are minimal I think, and if I had the source to the
Windows/cygwin client I'd try to make them myself... but I don't.  So maybe
your linux script will be more promising.

I have decided to release a command line client based on the moznx
libraries.

I figured there may be people who are interested in an alternative client
that do not want to mess with a browser plugin.

It is essentially an update to the old nxrun client released by nomachine.
It is currently linux-only, so let me know if anyone is interested in a
win32 version.

It supports 1.4.0 encrypted sessions.  it also supports having different key
files for different servers by just adding one line to your configuration
file.

Details are at http://home.nc.rr.com/moznx/
