My first point of troubleshooting would be permissions, probably |
| 64 |
starting with pam and consolekit. Look for rights and groups that |
| 65 |
different between local and remote users. |
| 66 |
|
| 67 |
I'm not familiar with how Free-NX works - does your system know the |
| 68 |
difference between local and remote users wrt Free-NX logins? |
