As I posted previously, nxloadconfig should stop nxdesktop
being executed by checking if it exists and setting:-

        ENABLE_EXTERNAL_NXDESKTOP="1"

when it finds that it doesn't, which causes nxserver
to set:-

        type="windows-helper"

So . . .

Look in your nxserver script and see what's happend to
The section (which previously looked like) :-

        if [ "$ACTION" = "start" ]
        then

                # Hack for external RDP/RFB agents

                if [ "$ENABLE_EXTERNAL_NXDESKTOP" = "1" -a "$(getparam 
type)" = "windows" ]
                then
                        type="windows-helper"
                        application="$PATH_BIN/nxdesktop_helper"
 
PARAMS="$PARAMS&type=$type&application=$application&freenx_export_agents=1"
                        CMDLINE=$PARAMS
                fi


You may as well also check nxloadconfig to see what's
happened to the section (which used to look like) :-

{ ! mywhich "$PATH_BIN/nxdesktop"; } >/dev/null 2>&1 && 
ENABLE_EXTERNAL_NXDESKTOP="1"


and also in nxloadconfig, check to see if:-

        NXCONFIG_RETEST=1

is still there, else the above check will be missed out !!!
(sounds like the most likely cause to me)
