Did you install the NXserver on your home computer.

I hope you haven't anything from a previous install of NXfree.

The only username you haveto use is the username and password from your 
/home/user directory
on your home computer that will be entered in NX client in the computer 
at work.

In the Client computer at Work in the login window you'll have ;

Login:  (Your username from your /home/user at home)
Password: (Your password you use to login to your /home/user at home 
Computer)
Session:  (Your username from your /home/user at home computer)

Be sure that, that Client Window on your work Computer is "Configured" 
as I showed in my first Email.

(The Work Computer), configure the login window(client) with host IP 
(your home computers IP) Desktop is Unix, KDE or Gnome , Display on mine 
is set to 1024x768 , no encryptions .
