I am following the same process now, so sharing tips more than solutions...

The message you get actually is rather "generic" There are quite a few things 
that 
can go wrong and lead to that message in the NX client. 

Take a look at system log (/var/log/syslog in Debian, for example). There is a 
detailed log of what happened.

In my case, first the path to nxagent was configured wrong. Then, once it was 
configured right (hand-tweaked constants.py file in site-packages/neatx/) path 
to the 
libs that nxagent needed were not configured etc etc.

So, start looking at system log on the server.

Thanks suslikreal. This is most likely a duplicate of 
http://code.google.com/p/neatx/issues/detail?id=3 . Let me know if not, and we 
can 
investigate more.
