You have several remote Linux machines that you want to log in to. How do you set up additional Nxclient sessions?
Run the NX Connection Wizard every time you want to create a new session. On Windows, run Start → NX Client For Windows → NX Connection Wizard.
On Linux , Solaris, and Mac OS X, run /usr/NX/bin/nxclient--wizard
.
You can create a new desktop shortcut for each one, and it will also populate the drop-down menu in the Nxclient login screen with the name of each new session.
Nxclient comes with all the fixings to create menu and desktop icons, even on Linux. Whether they will actually be installed depends on your chosen Linux distribution.

Monitoring Nxclient Sessions With NX Session Administrator
You want to monitor and control your Nxclient sessions—start new ones, stop existing ones, view logs, collect statistics, and monitor performance. How do you do this?
Use the NX Session Administrator, which comes with Nxclient. On Windows clients, look for the NX Session Administrator shortcut.
On Linux , Mac OS X, and Solaris, run /usr/NX/bin/nxclient--admin
.
Using it is self-explanatory; just check out the different menus. The Session menu is interesting—here, you can see all the logs, statistics, and see for yourself how bandwidth-efficient FreeNX really is.
KDE and Gnome are both working toward integrating FreeNX and Nxclient, so keep your eyes peeled for KDE and Gnome-specific utilities.
