OK, the next obvious thing is the user logging in. Did you log in as
the same user on the console for the gnome test?
yes, I've been using the same user account at both the console and the nxclient. and I also made a new testuser account (completely new) on the server, no difference: authentication but no desktop.
Also, in the NX
client's advanced configuration section, did you check the 'enable ssl
encryption of all traffic' box. That might or might not be needed,
depending on firewalling.
yes indeed, ssl encryption of all traffic is enabled. and --encryption="1" shows up in the "details" window on the client error message section for the "startsession ..." call
there's no proxy that I'm going through for either box (CentOS 5, 4.4). the two firewalls do differ a little. the centos 4.4 one has these two lines in iptables -L output
ACCEPT ipv6-crypt-- anywhere anywhere
ACCEPT ipv6-auth-- anywhere anywhere
whereas 5 does not but instead has
ACCEPT esp -- anywhere anywhere
ACCEPT ah -- anywhere anywhere
and the centos 5 also has the line (which 4.4 does not)
ACCEPT tcp -- anywhere anywhere tcp dpt:ipp
