This is a reply to my own post. The issue I encountered is a know bug that was submitted 4 months ago (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=437655), and there is an easy workaround. My apologies for the noise, but at least I hope that this message will help others trying to get FreeNX to work in FC9. Specifically those who read (and post) to this list before doing a detailed search on bugzilla. ;-) Thanks to all those working to fix FreeNX in FC9. It is a fantastic piece of software.
