[FreeNX-kNX] xauth problem

Wed Apr 15 04:02:26 UTC 2009

Hi, all
   Somehow, I messed up my NX configuration. Now I'm getting some
error message, rookie mistake may be, but I can't solve it by just
searching the web, please help me.
   After checking the log, I found the most suspicious error message is:
   NX> 596 xauth:
/home/ups/.nx/C-ibm-1013-B60EB3376B52A909EBFB280B206EC864/scripts/authority:3:
 bad display name "ibm:1013" in "add" command
   But I'm not sure how to fix it. The detailed error message is
listed below, thanks.
