Hi Helmut, |
33 |
|
34 |
Be sure the "nx" user has a password set. Any password. It doesn't |
35 |
matter what, as long as it has one. (it actually uses publickey so the |
36 |
password is irrelevant, but sometimes it won't connect without one) |
37 |
|
38 |
Otherwise I would double-check that your keys match. Check |
39 |
/usr/NX/share/keys/default.id_dsa.key on the server and compare it to |
40 |
the key you have in your nxclient. |
41 |
|
42 |
Furthermore, if you have PAM authentication disabled in your sshd, you |
43 |
need to use the internal user and password database and explicitly add |
44 |
users and passwords to it. At least on my system that's what I had to |
45 |
do. |
