IceWM is another good low-mem WM if you like the windows/kde look. JWM is another good one that is very similar.

If you want a lowmem graphical browser check out midori or a keyboard centric one like surf or uzbl.

I did everything in the guide, but i keep getting this:
Quote:NX> 203 NXSSH running with pid: 7052

NX> 285 Enabling skip of SSH config files
NX> 285 Setting the preferred NX options

NX> 202 Authenticating user: nx
NX> 208 Using auth method: publickey

Is there anyway to just use a password instead of a publickey.

the key is in /etc/nxserver/client.id_dsa or something simular

I put it in but the same thing is still showing up. I followed your guide exactly. Is there anything im missing? something i need to change?


RE: Install gnome (or KDE) and FreeNX - Infinity - 06-05-2011 01:08 AM

I had that error too, see if the /etc/nxserver/client.id_dsa actually exists.

/etc/nxserver/client.id_dsa.key

Cat the file, then go to nx click configure then key then after done add in the hostname.
your done.

Yes there is, but its not advisable. Basically do the opposite to what is said at http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/FreeNX#head-3a2e4992e1d6b6365aa4205abd4ca269e3b81053

But do what everything else is saying first to see if you can get key-based auth working first.

Check the contents of the auth logfile in /var/log/ and the nxserver logfile if that exists.

Did you add the user nx to the list of allowed users in sshd_config?


RE: Install gnome (or KDE) and FreeNX - DeathProxy - 06-10-2011 02:24 PM

Now i am getting this.
