[FreeNX-kNX] Connecting to existing session

[Alastair Johnson]

I think you understand correctly - both nxserver and nxclient running on the 
same machine, with the client connecting to the server to use a session that 
can be taken over by a remote client. If you set the server up to autologin 
to a guest account that can only run the nxclient it would give you something 
very similar to a login screen. Note that I haven't tried running it like 
this ;-)

I don't remember whether or not the client gui will let you grab an existing 
session off another client after authentication. It might just be as easy as 
picking the session you want from the list of available sessions.

If not, you can ssh into the server and suspend the existing session:
	nxserver --suspend <username>
This would suspend all sessions for that user, but you can do this by 
individual session if you have multiple sessions open. Now (after a short 
pause...) you can connect with the client and resume the suspended session.
