I'm aware of this, however, the cups/X fork is only for the server side. On the client side there is normally an SSH fork involved, but I'm working with the freenx people who have a patch to nxproxy so that it doesn't need nxssh. These ITPs are for an NX client with the above patches so that openssh can be used rather than nxssh. Matt -- Matthew Johnson
