Created attachment 336856 [details] freenx-0.7.3-stale-x11-display.patch Description of problem: If there are processes having X11 displays in use, the nxserver script seems to use broken arithmetic to determine the port number, e.g. instead of port 6010 for display :10 it checks port 8010 (which isn't in use). Later on, allocating the X11 display a second time won't work and logging in fails. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): freenx-server-0.7.3-11.fc10.i386 The problematic part is in the nxserver script, around line 1439: ... # Check if there is already an agent running on that display on that host let AGENT_DISPLAY=$SESS_DISPLAY+6000 if $COMMAND_NETCAT -z "$SERVER_HOST" $AGENT_DISPLAY 2>/dev/null then log 2 "Warning: Stray nxagent without .nX$SESS_DISPLAY-lock found on host:port $SERVER_HOST:$AGENT_DISPLAY." let SESS_DISPLAY=$SESS_DISPLAY+1 continue fi ... As $SESS_DISPLAY is $DISPLAY_BASE plus the offset (e.g. 10 for display :10), it needs to be substracted again to calculate the X11 display TCP port ($AGENT_DISPLAY). It could be that I interpret these lines wrongly (i.e. they aren't about the X11 display TCP port), then a check for that port would need to be added to the script. The following patch assumes that I'm right of course ;-).
Thanks for the patch!
