[FreeNX-kNX] FreeNX clashing with ssh-oscar

Hi,

just for your information and the Google archives.

FreeNX currently clashes with ssh-oscar, which leads to a successful session startup, but no application is launched.

The reason is that oscar sets/overwrites several environment vars, while being sourced from /etc/bashrc.

This is wrong.

Oscar also overwrites the type variable, which leads to FreeNX not knowing how to start session type "rsa".

I'll fix this in SVN by renaming type and Michael promised to send a bug report to oscar devels.

The fix for oscar is quite easy, too.

Just run the script in a subshell as those environment vars seem to be not used later anymore.

cu

Fabian
