I don't remember the portnumber exactly, but as grep of the nxserver script reveals:
$ cat /usr/bin/nxserver | grep 4000
let PROXY_DISPLAY=$SESS_DISPLAY+4000
If I remember correctly, you should just change the display nr in node.conf to \
something like:
DISPLAY_BASE=2000
which would change the port number 5000 to 6000. I might be wrong here (late in the \
evening :p), but worth a try.
Please add this to the FreeNX Wiki (see bottom of this mail) if it works, or other \
solution, so other running VirtualBox might find this information easy.
Regards,
Terje
