What I want is a single password request to go out via radius or tacacs+. With ssh, it just goes out once. With FreeNX, it goes out twice, according to /var/log/secure. The auth server logs show the password accepted once, then rejected the second attempt as well. Here is the detail from the time-out: NX> 203 NXSSH running with pid: 9755 NX> 285 Enabling check on switch command NX> 285 Enabling skip of SSH config files NX> 200 Connected to address: *ipaddress* on port: 22 NX> 202 Authenticating user: nx NX> 208 Using auth method: publickey HELLO NXSERVER - Version 1.4.0-44 OS (GPL) NX> 105 hello NXCLIENT - Version 1.5.0 NX> 134 Accepted protocol: 1.5.0 NX> 105 SET SHELL_MODE SHELL NX> 105 SET AUTH_MODE PASSWORD NX> 105 login NX> 101 User: nowen NX> 102 Password: NX> 103 Welcome to: servername user: nowen NX> 105 listsession --user="nowen" --status="suspended,running" --geometry="1400x1050x24+render" --type="unix-kde" NX> 127 Sessions list of user 'nowen' for reconnect: Display Type Session ID Options Depth Screen Status Session Name ------- ---------------- -------------------------------- -------- ----- -------------- ----------- ------------------------------ NX> 148 Server capacity: not reached for user: nowen NX> 105 startsession --session="support" --type="unix-kde" --cache="8M" --images="32M" --cookie="******" --link="wan" --kbtype="pc105/us" --nodelay="1" --backingstore="when_requested" --geometry="1400x1019" --media="0" --agent_server="" --agent_user="" agent_password="******"" --screeninfo="1400x1019x24+render" Killed by signal 15. I'm guessing 'startsession' re-validates the password?
