language setting problem.
nx doesn't use gdm, so some things don't get set.

As suggested on the list, I moved /usr/bin/gnome-session to gnome-session.bin
And created a new /usr/bin/gnome-session that simply does
#!/bin/bash
$HOME/.gnomerc

and then the users .gnomerc
#!/bin/bash
export LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF-8
export LANG=en_US.UTF-8
sudo sessreg -a -l $DISPLAY $USER
/usr/bin/gnome-session.bin

Now 'users' and 'who' work.

Thanks.
Chris.
