tail -f /var/log/nxserver.log shows nothing.

 

However, I am seeing entries in /var/log/secure

 

Aug 20 14:14:48 barolo sshd[11425]: Accepted publickey for nx from
75.127.217.67 port 31185 ssh2

Aug 20 14:15:08 barolo sshd[11425]: pam_unix(sshd:session): session
opened for user nx by (uid=0)

Aug 20 14:15:30 barolo sshd[11416]: pam_unix(sshd:session): session
closed for user nx

Aug 20 14:15:46 barolo sshd[11419]: pam_unix(sshd:session): session
closed for user nx

Aug 20 14:16:08 barolo sshd[11425]: pam_unix(sshd:session): session
closed for user nx

 

My node.conf

 

Only options

SSHD_PORT=12019

ENABLE_SSH_AUTHENTICATION="1"

NX_LOG_LEVEL=6

NX_LOG_SECURE=1

NX_LOGFILE=/var/log/nxserver.log

 

I touch'd /var/log/nxserver.log and chmod 777'd it and chown'd it to
nx....

 

Strange.........

 

Warmest Regards,

That's what we were doing with ssh keys etc actually . . .
