Freenx problem

Hi everybody,

I'm having troubles with getting freenx setup on one of my RHEL6 servers and I'm at a loss on what to try next.  I have FreeNX and NX both installed, but when I run 'nxsetup —install' to setup the standard keys it says that the connection to the nxserver is bad and it fails.  The output is the same as what is below.  I tried all of the suggestions that are given in the output as examples of what to try, but none of them made any differences.  Strangely, I have freenx setup on other servers where it does work and 'nxsetup —test' outputs the same errors until where it gets to '<--- done'.  This server is under the same puppet control as the other servers that work so all the configuration files are the same.  One thing that I think could be a cause is that the other working servers were kickstarted when the OS was installed, but this server's OS was installed manually so maybe somewhere a config file is different that I missed.

Any help is much appreciated, thanks!
Nick


Here's the output from nxsetup —test:

Please check your ssh setup:

The following are _examples_ of what you might need to check.

- Make sure "nx" is one of the AllowUsers in sshd_config.
    (or that the line is outcommented/not there)
- Make sure "nx" is one of the AllowGroups in sshd_config.
    (or that the line is outcommented/not there)
- Make sure your sshd allows public key authentication.
- Make sure your sshd is really running on port 22.
- Make sure your sshd_config AuthorizedKeysFile in sshd_config is set to authorized_keys2.
    (this should be a filename not a pathname+filename)
  - Make sure you allow ssh on localhost, this could come from some
    restriction of:
      -the tcp wrapper. Then add in /etc/hosts.allow: ALL:localhost
      -the iptables. add to it:
         $ iptables -A INPUT  -i lo -j ACCEPT
         $ iptables -A OUTPUT -o lo -j ACCEPT
