Lo folks,

My NX connection mysteriously stopped working when I remotely rebooted 
my server, so I SSH'd in and tried the 'nxsetup --install' and I get this...

----> Testing your nxserver connection ...
Permission denied (publickey,password).
Fatal error: Could not connect to NX Server.

And a bunch of things to try to change in the SSH config file... I have 
included a copy of my SSH config file so that you can see I have tried 
to make the changes - however even after restarting SSH and running 
'nxsetup --install' again - I still get the same message, any ideas?
