[FreeNX-kNX] Connecting from Windows 2003 - Error: Size mismatch between cookies 'with' and 'ce7f7ce0158d0f420cf0bf921a3f7fa0'

I have been banging my head on the keyboard over this issue.  I have
FreeNX 0.4.4 and the 1.4.92+1.5.0 components installed on a relatively
fresh install of Ubuntu Breezy.  I have the 1.5.0 client installed on
a windows 2003 box and a windows xp box.  The problem only occurs from
the windows 2003 box.  I get the following error message:

Error: Size mismatch between cookies 'with' and
'ce7f7ce0158d0f420cf0bf921a3f7fa0'.
Error: Cannot read the cookie from the authorization file.
Error: Error creating the X authorization.

If I look into the log file I see:

[Wed Oct 5 16:43:21 2005]: NXProxyProtocol::receiveData('Error: Size
mismatch between cookies 'with' and
'8318de3da2ed50b5847954dc057a825c'.')
[Wed Oct 5 16:43:21 2005]: Session Failed: 'Error: Size mismatch
between cookies 'with' and '8318de3da2ed50b5847954dc057a825c'.'

It appears that the win2003 machine is not sending the correct cookie.

I have tried uninstall and reinstall (as well as deleting the .nx and
.ssh files) on the windows box to no avail.  I even tried the
commercial version of nxserver, but this did not change the problem. 
Has anyone else successfully used a 2003 server machine to connect to
a freenx host?

Thanks!
