 |
|
Hi y'all,
I setup nxserver-freenx and I noticed some oddity in the nxsetup script.
I ran the following to setup freenx to use a specific key pair;
| Code: | | # nxsetup --install --clean --purge |
and got this
| Code: | ----> Testing your nxserver connection ...
Permission denied (publickey,keyboard-interactive).
Fatal error: Could not connect to NX Server. |
Moreover nxclient wouldn't connect with the message;
"The NX service is not available or the NX access was disabled on host 10.0.0.182"
Checking /var/lib/nxserver I saw that the owner and group where set to root. Changing both to nx fixed it and allowed me to connect with the nxclient again.
I'm curious as to whether this is a bug, something that got overlooked or something I missed.
In any of these cases, it's easy to fix if you run into this with;
| Code: | | # chown -R nx:nx /var/lib/nxserver |
Run
to verify this.
