See the FAQ for how to turn on logging, both for the server and the session. 
by the sound of it you should look at the session and error logs in the 
user's home directory. Most problems can be diagnosed from the log files. See 
the FAQ, search the list archives in case someone's fixed it before, and if 
that fails try posting the logs here. It also helps to give version numbers 
for FreeNX, the NX libs, the client and the OS involved.

Advanced methods involve looking at the source ;-) FreeNX is a collection of 
shell scripts that use the NX libraries. There is usually enough in the logs 
to spot where the error occurred and grep the scripts for the message to give 
yourself a starting point. Now you can add your own echos to logfile, or to 
your own debug file if you prefer.
