I am not familiar with nxserver (freenx).

Does it use the normal X host authentication?
Does it appear as a local: host?

As a test try on ubuntu
   bash> xhost +
to disable access control.
If you can now see your remote session, you know that you need to
enable X access for that remote host.
[After this test, you should reenable access crontrol with
   bash> xhost -
]

Is it possible that the relevant changes are to the /etc/hosts.allow and
/etc/hosts.deny files?

Hopefully helpful,
