on the server, I did the nxsetup --install --setup-nomachine-key

nxserver --status results in

NX>100 NXSERVER Version 1.4.0.03 OS (GPL)
NX>110 NX Server is running
NX>999 Bye

I can ssh into the server from the client with no problem?

What files should I have in home/afore/.ssh on the Server?
On the server if have authorized_keys and Authorized_keys2.
authorized_keys is the id_dsa.pub file copied from the client.
Client machine has authorized_keys, I think also copied from id_dsa.pub
from the client, authorized_keys.pub I don't know where from, id_dsa,
id_dsa.pub from the keygen, and known_hosts when is installed when I
accept certificate from server the first time I run NXClient.

Knxclent always says connection could not be made, timeout.
