[K12OSN] freenx problem

[Gideon Romm]

Hi, guys.  I just uploaded a 0.6 version of the NX_LTSP package which
starts to address this issue.  Basically, upon launch of the screen
script, it will copy the appropriate key for the appropriate server
specified by "session_name".  Instead of saving the file as
client.id_dsa.key, save it as client.id_dsa.key.<session_name>  When the
screen script is ran, it will copy the appropriate file to
client.id_dsa.key.  Specify session_name with the "-n <session_name>"
flag.  The default session_name is "session", so if you only have one
server, please save the key as client.id_dsa.key.session .

Let me know if this addresses the issue.  The only minor pain that I can
envision at this moment is that if 2 sessions start upon boot, one
session has to be logged into first, and then the second has to be
restarted with ctrl-alt-backspace.  I will work to try and get the
copying of the key to happen after login instead, which would fix this.

Cheers,

-Gideon
