Re: [gentoo-user] Re: FreeNX password vs. ssh-key
u can use nxclient w/VNC protocol. The server shall then invoke a local vnc server, log into it with a local nx client, and let you log into the local client. That way you get nx's performance over a VNC connection (sort-of). Amit I'm just wandering if it is possible to connect to existing user session not generating a new session.

It's been a long time since I used FreeNX though and don't remember its server configuration details. If x2go supports XFCE4 I will go with it :- The drop-down list here on the client shows Gnome, KDE, LXDE, Windows terminal server (lol), and Custom. I suppose you need to select Custom and provide the command that starts the XFCE desktop.
