Hi Matt,
Thanks for the response. I had initially tried FreeNX intreprid version (backend 3.3.0) in Debian Lenny. But it kept disconnecting. So I recompiled the debian package for Debian Lenny and it was working pretty well. I did observe though that certain features such as Desktop sharing did not work.

I thought that the latest FreeNX Lucid version (backend 3.4.0) might have fixed these bugs. And so I recompiled them for Debian squeeze. But there seem to be a couple of bugs in the latest version. The session resume bug has been fixed though. It might not work with the OpenNX Lucid Version but it works with the deb package provided by the original author. Installation instructions can be found at http://opennx.net/download.html.

So my recommendation would probably be Ubuntu FreeNX Lucid version with OpenNX from the original author :).

Regards,
Rahul.
