   Thorsten Kampe to All   
   Two questions about NX

   Hi,   
      
   I'm using nxserver-freeedition. This works fine but two problems   
   remain:   
      
   1. NX (to be exact: nxssh) uses some random or incrementing port above   
   5000 to connect to the NX server. I would have to open all port above   
   5000 in my firewall to let the NX client connect. How can I predict to   
   which port the NX client/nxssh connects?   
      
   2. When I login to a UNIX/KDE session the KDE "Composite Manager"   
   complains that it cannot find the "Composite extension". This is   
   configured in xorg.conf and in a normal (non NX) session the   
   "Composite Manager" does not complain.   
      
   Does NX have its own "xorg.conf" or why cannot KDE find this setting   
   when it's running under NX?!
