Thank you.  This change allowed me to connect to the console X session 
from the NX client on a Mac which happened to have a larger screen, but 
even though the client was set to use the same display resolution as the 
server, the window did not resize to match and manual attempts at 
resizing seemed to mismatch pixels making the text difficult to see. 
Attempts to connect from windows NX clients with equal or smaller 
screens go through the motions up to opening the window, but then 
disconnect immediately.  Is another patch needed to pass the server 
screen resolution to the client or did I miss a configuration setting on 
the client to force it to accept the server's screen size instead of 
trying to resize the X session to fit the client as they do with 
non-shadowed connections?  (The Mac client is able to resize both it's 
own window and non-shadowed sessions on the fly, while the Windows 
client seems locked at the size specified at startup).
