Hi Mike#1,

I tried that, however.

1. After I do the following and wait several seconds:
a. Run the script on the server
b. export DISPLAY=:9
c. startkde
nxagent is no longer running, and I get the message "$DISPLAY is not set or
cannot connect to the X server."

2. The client errors with:
Error: Please specify either the -C or -S option.
Session: Session terminated at 'Mon May 29 09:26:34 2017'.

wrt to #2:
a. I tried running `export NX_HOST` 1st.
b. I created /home/ad.depaulo.org/mike/.nx/S-9/
c. /home/ad.depaulo.org/mike/.nx/S-9/options contains:
nx/nx,keybd=1,samba=0,cups=0,connect=tcp:192.168.1.25:4009
,cookie=123efa980d2cba234ef6f73deac810ff,errors=/home/
ad.depaulo.org/mike/.nx/S-9/session:9
d. The command is:
nxproxy -S nx/nx,options=/home/ad.depaulo.org/mike/.nx/S-9/options:9
2>>/home/ad.depaulo.org/mike/.nx/S-9/session

-Mike#2
