	Hello,

  I'm trying to use the nxclient/FreeNX server with client on a X-Terminal,
i.e. where the display isn't on the same hardware the nxclient is run : the
DISPLAY env. var is set to <XTerminal>:0.0 but the session fails just before
opening the black screen ! Looking at the client log  .nx/temp/9726/runlog,
I've found :
...
Running command [/usr/X11R6/bin/xauth -f /home/<account>/.Xauthority nextract -
:0.0 | \
  cut -f 9 -d ' ' 1>/home/<account>/.nx/temp/9726/authlog 2>/dev/null].

which is incorrect, the word :0.0 should be replaced by <XTerminal>:0.0 (as the
DISPLAY variable) ! The result is using a wrong 'xauth' authorization cookie,
which let fail the connexion...

does somebody has already encounters this problem ? is there a solution ?

	Thanks for an advice,

		Frédéric Boiteux


PS: the nxclient version is 1.4.0-91
