I'm not sure if NX has the option to allow root logins. But most admin work suffice to use terminal/xterms no? You could always try using VNC tunnelled via SSH.(?) Performance wise, it could be different? What about doing admin on the linux box from a linux box? running X apps remotely and displaying it locally? ssh -X -C user@host gui app & something like that??
