i was changing my hostname around to see if it would make it work.
sshd is running, but before, it kept saying that it couldn't find any authentication methods. I reverted my changes until someone explained how to set it up with just a password instead of a key and everything.

To just use password authentication set PasswordAuthentication to yes in sshd_config. Then restart sshd
You should probably also move your shared key on your client somewhere else so it doesn't try to auth using that. You can also set RSAAuthentication to no if you want to disable key based auth completely.

Wouldn't XFC or openbox be better for a server?

Yes, but it's a little harder to set up with NX. (not much, but it's not a easy selection like gnome/kde)

Ah, because I tend to like to have a GUI just in case but I don't really want to bloat it with Gnome...

It will only run when you are connected.

I also managed to put XFCE and FreeNX on my VPS7. It's basically the same, you just need to select "Custom" and put the command to start XFCE as the command that is to be run when connecting.

any low mem wm would be better for a server imo, but it comes down to what people prefer/are used to.
