I was able to get freenx working just fine
once ssh was able to create a /tmp file properly (I
previously did not have it writable). Not sure if this will help but I don’t
believe you will be able to connect to freenx with ssh
in debug (sshd –d) as sshd wont fork in debug mode. Did you try
connecting without ssh in debug? If you want to get
more info from ssh while connecting, what I did was in
set the log level to the highest in ssh-config and tailed my secure log.

or Freenx in a guest domain
Greetings!
I tried to get FreeNX working and was getting sigterm 15 error. Which noone was
able to help with. I decided to troubleshoot the problem by just connecting
thru SSH -Y connection from dom0 to domU. The image for the guest was created
in qemu and the system partition was migrated to a raw partition for use with
Xen. I have spent two weeks troubleshooting it and no luck. I have reinstalled
openssh and its dependents on both domU and dom0 and still no luck at all. I am
at my wits end with this problem. I have spent about 12 hours with people from
the #linuxhelp #fedora from freenode and irc.oftc.. and noone has been able to
help.. They think its a Xen issue but I am not sure. Next I was going to try
and get it working from dom0 to the qemu image to see if it made a difference.
Here is the details
trying to setup xnest session to remotely launch xterm (later on I would like
to get gnome working remotely)
on the server side I have IP! address 192.168.15.101
on the client side I have IP address 192.168.15.100
I am not using DNS
I launch the SSHD with the command /usr/sbin/sshd -d -p 1236
It says
debug1: sshd version OpenSSH_4.2p1
debug1: read PEM private key done: type RSA
debug1: private host key: #0 type 1 RSA
debug1: read PEM private key done: type DSA
debug1: private host key: #1 type 2 DSA
debug1: rexec_argv[0]='/usr/sbin/sshd'
debug1: rexec_argv[1]='-d'
debug1: rexec_argv[2]='-p'
debug1: rexec_argv[3]='1236'
debug1: Bind to port 1236 on 192.168.15.101.
Server listening on 192.168.15.101 port 1236
On the client I issue xhost +
It says
access control disabled, clients can connect from any host
I type Xterm
an Xterm session starts
In the Xterm session I type
Xnest :1 -ac &
It informs me
Could not init font path element /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TT! F/, removing from
list!
Could not init font path element /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/CID/, removing from
list!
I hit <enter>
A prompt appears
I type ssh -Xvvv -p 1236 hikenboot@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
It tells me
It says a bunch of stuff
then It says
debug3:authmethod_is_enabled password
debug1: Next authentication method: password
hieknboot@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx's password:
I type my password
It says a bunch of stuff then it says
debug1: Recieved SIGCHLD.
and then a prompt appears
I type export DISPLAY=192.168.15.100:1
then I type
xterm
the last lines on the server say
debug1: session_new: session 0
debug1: session_open: channel 0
debug1: session_open: session 0: link with channel 0
debug1: server_input_channel_open: confirm session

debug1: session_by_channel: session ! 0 channel 0

debug1: server_input_channel_req: channel 0 request pty-req reply 0
debug1: session_by_channel: session 0 channel 0
debug1: session_input_channel_req: session 0 req pty-req
debug1: Allocating pty.

debug1: server_input_channel_req: channel 0 request shell reply 0
debug1: session_by_channel: session 0 channel 0
debug1: session_input_channel_req: session 0 req shell
debug1: Setting controlling tty using TIOCSCTTY.
on the clients xterm /xnest session it just hangs!
thats it..
thanks in advance for your help and happy hollidays!
