I feel a bit wimpy. After downloading this lists archives and greping.
I've found some helpful snippets from Fabian. Particularly,
remote $ DISPLAY="nx/nx,opt=foo:1" /usr/NX/bin/nxagent -B :1
local $ /usr/NX/bin/nxproxy -S remote:1
remote $ DISPLAY=:1 vgl glxgears
It works! Now I can build on that understanding. Sorry for the traffic.
Thanks,
Scott
