Hello,

using SL 6.10, nxserver 3.2.0-74 .

root@arthur:~# export DISPLAY=10.0.0.9:1002.0
Sie haben neue Post in /var/spool/mail/root.
root@arthur:~# xterm
Warning: This program is an suid-root program or is being run by the root user.

program as a non-root user or by removing the suid bit on the executable.
xterm Xt error: Can't open display: %s

but:
root@arthur:~# export DISPLAY=:1002.0
root@arthur:~# xterm
Warning: Cannot convert string "nil2" to type FontStruct
xterm: cannot load font -misc-fixed-medium-r-semicondensed--13-120-75-75-c-60-iso10646-1

works!!  (xhost + is in autostart of every user).


Why not accessible viel IP/ network? Only accessible local? What is locked on scientific?


example:

--pc44      30755  0.0  0.4 180096 120300 ?       S    10:00 0:10   _ /usr/libexec/nx/nxagent -persistent -D -name NX - pc44@arthur:1002 - DavidX (GPL Edition) -option /home/pc44/.nx/C-arthur-1002-27736AF6397123CD7F3F645BCA8E28A4/options*-nolisten tcp* :1002


nxstarts with "-nolisten tcp". Where is that set? - In /etc/nxserver/node.conf:

#AGENT_EXTRA_OPTIONS_X=*"-nolisten tcp"*   #    is commented out!!

When  I modify it to

AGENT_EXTRA_OPTIONS_X="*-listen tcp*"     # nolisten -> listen!

Then nxserver doesn't allow any login, aborts with error message

Error: Aborting session with 'Unrecognized option: -listen'.


anybody here can help?

Some security policy on SL 6.10 that forces nxserver to "-nolisten tcp" ?

Or: who or what forces to start nx with "-nolisten tcp" although its not commented in in node.conf?
