[FreeNX-kNX] Oh those keys...

[Verner Kjærsgaard]

Am trying to get FreeNX to work on SuSE11.
Fresh install.
Did run nxsetup with --nomachine-keys and all.
Changed /etc/nxserver/node.conf with

ENABLE_SSH_AUTHENTICATION="1"
ENABLE_SU_AUTHENTICATION="1"

If I put my private key into /home/mydir/.ssh/authorized_keys2 I can log 
in without password.
No firewall, ssh works.

If I copy the /var/lib/nxserver/home/.ssh/client.id_dsa.key to my own 
local machine and do

"ssh -i client.id_dsa.key nx at remoteserver "

I'm prompted for an nx password. Because the nx user is not authorized 
using the keys.
The permissions and ownership of the keys are correct.

If I google I find 1000s of questions like this...no answer. People copy 
id-files here and there, - and the user nx cannot get going.

Surely lots of people have solved this little problem...only its 
solution is well hidden :-)

Anyone?
