NX client & server

hello,

i've installed net/linux-nx-client and net/freenx ports.

first i tried to connect to NoMachine's testdrive server but the client 
crashed with signal 11 somewhere in the middle of the connecting process.

then i tried `nxclient --admin` which hanged my whole X11 or window 
manager (window maker). i had to switch to the console and kill them.

for both above i followed http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/8538 .

next, i installed freenx server but don't know what to do next. i've 
come across many documents on the net, but all of them are related to 
different linux distros and they differ substantially. also, i noticed 
there hasn't been nx user created and the scripts installed contain 
wrong paths (ie original paths, not the ones used on freebsd).

i'm a bit perplexed now. what is the state/status of these ports and is 
there any howto on freebsd installation please ??

with regards,

martin

ps: this is freebsd 6-stable and recent ports tree.
