Yes, I know. But we use Thinstation and it's buggy Xorg has memory leaks
with NX, VNC is more robust. I know this is not freenx but Thinstation
problem. For a past year problem still exist, but I hope new version
makes me happy. :\

I look at nxviewer/nxpasswd/vncpasswd.c There is a code there:
    if (strlen(passwd) < 5) {
      fprintf(stderr, "Password too short\n");
     return 0;
But I'm absolutely sure users have passwords with more (or equal) than 5
symbols.
I think that password is for VNC server with one shared connection, but
we use VNC with many sessions, so password is not needed, every user
possess own password and establish own session. In NX client' properties
in "VNC - Settings"tab  password is clear. I add record for Thinstation
config with fake password:
"SESSION_0_NX_VNC_SESSION_PASSWORD=":114:121:104:118:121:127:" So now
message "Password too short" is disappeared from nxserver.log but not
help me:

Again sometime user can start session wih success, sometime failed with
this result. Where else I can look at for problem solving?
