Hello,

Recently my FreeNX Server running on SLES 10 started giving the following 
error for all users trying to login:

NX> 203 NXSSH running with pid: 4812
NX> 285 Enabling check on switch command
NX> 285 Enabling skip of SSH config files
NX> 285 Setting the preferred NX options
NX> 200 Connected to address: x.x.x.x on port: 22
NX> 202 Authenticating user: nx
NX> 208 Using auth method: publickey
WARNING: Your password has expired.
Password change required but no TTY available.
NX> 280 Exiting on signal: 15

It appears that the error is referring to the 'nx' user/guest account. The 
usermod command won't unlock a passwordless account (which the nx user is) 
- so how do I get around this?

Also - does FreeNX/NXClient offer any sort of password change prompt for 
instances where normal user accounts expire due to password change policy?

Thanks for any input.
