[FreeNX-kNX] Authentication failure

[Yang]

I didn't end up getting any useful responses for this thread (which I
tried to resurrect once already), so I gave up on NX for a while, but
today I decided to give it another go, and managed to get a tiny bit
farther.

The story up till now: I yum-installed freenx on an up-to-date FC5,
and I can ssh in as user nx from my (Windows) client machine just
fine, but the NX client fails to authenticate. The client is from
http://www.nomachine.com/download-client-windows.php. It simply says
"Authentication failed for user kunle" (the Details button is grayed
out).

Today I went ahead and did something that all the resources I'd found
failed to mention:

sudo nxserver --adduser kunle
sudo nxserver --passwd kunle

Now my client actually makes it all the way to "Authentication
completed"! However, it stays at "Authentication completed" for more
than half a minute before spitting out "Connection timeout." This time
the Details button is enabled, so clicking on it shows the output I
pasted below. (I also checked /var/log/nxserver.log but it was empty.)

Does anybody have an idea what's going on? Any help would be greatly
appreciated. Thanks in advance.
