[FreeNX-kNX] Mac client cannot connect to server (worked fine for 2 or 3 times)

Fri Mar 28 15:27:47 UTC 2008

Hello All,

I just now installed a OpenSuSE 10.3 server with the following RPMs  
(from OpenSuSE download).

nxshell-1.3-27.1
qtnx-0.0.1SVNr281-78.1
nxclient-3.1.0-6
NX-2.1.0-131.1
FreeNX-0.7.2-1.1
knx-0.1-37.1

My setup is a little different in that my FreeNX server gets its root  
file system NFS mounted (read-only) from a NFS server, so in  
nxloadconfig I changed the relevant parameters to /var/rw/etc/nxserver  
and /var/rw/lib/nxserver where required. nxsetup --install --setup- 
nomachine-key worked fine too (I will change the key as soon as  
everything is setup correctly and working consistently).

Also, my node.conf is the default that comes with the installer.

 From both a Mac NX Client (3.1.0-6) and Windows NX Client (3.1.0-6) I  
was able to connect to this server for at least a couple times.  
Actually after suspending from Mac client, I was even able to resume  
on the Windows (through Mac VMWare fusion) client.

But, now I am able to start new sessions/resume suspended sessions  
from the Windows client, but cannot start / resume sessions from the  
Mac client totally. This is what I see when I click on the "Details"  
button.
