FreeNX on Fedora Core 6 - Noob Problem - jumney1 - 2007-05-11
Hi all,
Yes I'm a noob when it comes to Linux so be gentle!! lol
I've recently had a box setup running Fedora Core 6 and would like to access it with NX-Client for Windows.
I've been onto the box using putty and run: yum install nxserver
I'm not sure if everything went well or not, it asked me "Is this ok" 3 times and eventually finished.
On windows I installed the NX-Client v1.5 and entered all the server details.
Initially I was getting "Cannot start local X server" or similar, but with setting compatibility thats been resolved.
Now I'm getting:
"Session Startup Failed"
And the log file this reports is attached to teh bottom of this post!!
I've entered the key from etc/nxserver/client.id_dsa.key into the client but looking through the log its something to do with session ID's or something?!?!
Any help is MUCH appreciated!!
Thanks
