Tried this Thomas, there was no change. As far as the log files, nothing shows up in /var/log/messages.

I uninstalled everything and reinstaleld and started over with the website instractions mentioned earlier, which by the way have errors and got to the same point as before. I did find that importing the client.id_dsa.pub with the import button on the client, configure, general tab got me to where nx now authenticates, but now my login with my user name and password does not authenticate and I am using the correct name and password. What key or file controls this and how do I get nx to find it? is it one of the keys generated before? If so, which one? I am not at all clear on these keys as there is no real explanation of what is for what. (I also get the same thing from an nxclient on the server) Art </div></div> </div> -- fedora-list mailing list <a onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)" href="mailto:fedora-list@redhat.com">fedora-list@redhat.com</a> To unsubscribe: <a onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)" href="https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list" target="_blank"> https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list</a> </blockquote></div>
