nx

I installed NX server on my desktop and able to run it successfully following this tutorial:

http://michigantelephone.wordpress.com/2007/10/15/how-to-install-nx-server-and-client-under-ubuntukubuntu-linux/

When i run the command sudo /usr/NX/bin/nxserver –status I am seeing the following output :

NX> 900 Connecting to server .. NX> 110 NX Server is running.

NX> 999 Bye.

It means i have setup NX server correctly..

But on other machine when i open NX client it is asking for hostname..what name should i give there?

Every tutorial is explaining about how to install and start NX server but not about how to connect to the server from client..

Could you guys please help me?

Thanks in Advance Deter
