Description of problem: after upgrading to latest nx rpm on fc6 i couldn't connect to nx server looking throw the logs i found out that nxagent was missing from where nxnode was lookin for it, so i found it and linked to it. terminal's output: /usr/libexec/nx/nxnode --agent strings: '/usr/libexec/nx/nxagent': No such file NX> 1000 NXNODE - Version 1.5.0-70 OS (GPL) NX> 716 Starting NX Agent ... /usr/libexec/nx/nxnode: line 1306: /usr/libexec/nx/nxagent: No such file or dire ctory NX> 716 NX Agent exited with status: 127 NX> 1001 Bye.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.1.0 22.fc6 so just make sure nxagent is in the right place (i think) kindly, nadav :-)
The paths you mention like /usr/lib/NX/nxagent are not from the package. Furthermore I checked that /usr/libexec/nx/nxagent is part of FC6's package which is half a year old. So most probably your issues come from a mixed installation (e.g. using packages and nxsetup or something similar). I suggest to stick to one method, either just the package and configuring it, or no package bits at all and using the manual installation.
yes :-( i did a mix installation (as suggested by some site, long time ago) i guess i should stick with packages-only-installation in the future. when i upgrade to fc8 :-) thank you for your time :-)
