I recently built freenx from scratch on a Sparc/Debian box, and had 
problems with nxagent, which was hard to troubleshoot.  I've written up 
the details, and will post it somewhere useful sometime, but here's the 
section on how I managed to get nxagent working.  Note that I used the 
commercial directory structure (/usr/NX), not the freenx structure under 
var.......

    Library Troubleshooting
    -----------------------
    12.  After authentication, my session startup failed.

        NX> 1004 Error: nxagent failed to start. Session timed out.
        NX> 1001 Bye.

    So it looks like nxagent isn't working.  Trying to run nxagent
    manually fails, so it looks like I haven't built it yet.  Or rather,
    it has installed it elsewhere!  I searched and found the (new)
    version and copied it across:
        cp /usr/X11R6/bin/nxagent /usr/NX/bin

    However, nxagent was still failing.  Tried to test it using
    instructions from the mailing list:
        LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/usr/NX/lib" /usr/NX/bin/nxagent :1000

        /usr/NX/bin/nxagent: error while loading shared libraries:
    /usr/NX/lib/libXext.so.6: ELF file data encoding not big-endian

    Again, it appears that the make install in the X11 directory copies
    stuff into the X11R6 directory, so I need to update the NX/lib:

        cp /usr/X11R6/lib/libXext.so.6.4 /usr/NX/lib/
        cp /usr/X11R6/lib/libXrender.so.1.2 /usr/NX/lib/
        cp /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so.6.2 /usr/NX/lib/

    Yes, I know, I should have linked it.  But it was late!



Of course, your problem could be completely different, but you never know!

regards,

Brendan.
