Bug Description

We renamed our AuthorizedKeysFile in /etc/ssh/sshd_config. This file containing our custom key file is present in /var/lib/nxserver/home/.ssh, but it gets deleted after every update as per freenx-server.postinst. We feel this directory should be left alone after initial configuration.

Currently, the key handling is made by "$sudo dpkg-reconfigure
freenx-server".
In the current scenario you should copy your keys to
/var/lib/nxserver/home/custom_keys,
then select "Custom Keys" when reconfiguring.

Maybe a different approach is needed.
