NX not authenticating

I hate starting new thread!

I recently installed NX server on one computer and client on another. They have been working great. Today, I connected as usual, and then closed the session and now I cannot connect. I am using ubuntu on the server side, and I upgraded some security updates (one of which might have been openssh).

when I attempt to connect I now get:

Quote:

NX> 203 NXSSH running with pid: 15439
NX> 285 Enabling check on switch command
NX> 285 Enabling skip of SSH config files
NX> 285 Setting the preferred NX options
NX> 200 Connected to address: 76.181.99.218 on port: 22
NX> 202 Authenticating user: nx
NX> 208 Using auth method: publickey
NX> 204 Authentication failed.

I am able to ssh normally to the server and when I check the nxserver status I get:

Code:

NX> 900 Connecting to server ..
NX> 204 Authentication to NX server failed.
NX> 110 NX Server is stopped.
NX> 999 Bye.

The keys are exactly the same between clients. If I attempt to ssh as nx user I get:

enterying:

Code:

ssh nx@ip.ad.dre.ss -i /usr/NX/share/keys/server.id_dsa.key

returns:

Code:

nx@ip.ad.dre.ss's password:

Any ideas out there?

only that the shared key is now invalid. ntohign changed on either side? have you tried reimporting the key?

Thanks for the reply Chris.

How would I do that? (reimporting the shared key)
