Hi Akemi, nice to hear you're still with us  . . .

Just had another look through wth relevant code . . . 

This OP's potential for running into problem will be a bit worse when he 
has his FreeNX machine configured for ports in user-land because:-

The code just looks for an open LISTENER on each port
         - so gets tripped up by source ports which are in use (but not 
listening)
because
it is used by the load balancer;
         so in that senario it will be checking for free ports on other 
machines,
         which it can only do by attempting a connection

So in both local and load balance senarios the server needs to keep away 
from source ports which I guess is his fix.

Above is still a bug tho I think.

Well see what the OP says when he's had time to look at it . . . .
