[FreeNX-kNX] Timing Out

Thu Aug 20 15:05:45 UTC 2009

Can you see what is happening on the server ?

Login to the server accepting connections and turn on
logging in the /etc/nxserver/node.conf

then:
 tail -f /var/log/nxserver.log

Make your connection from the client and see if anything is
coming through. You should at least see the initial ssh authentication
taking place.

I am no NX expert at all but generally
if ssh is getting through thats all you should be worried
about network wise. If I am wrong please correct me.

Unfortunately I am not sure where the time out is.
I had a look in the session config and it is not there.
It may be related to /etc/ssh_config but not sure....

Good luck.
