It would be great when there comes official Debian support for NX.

There are allready some Debian packages here:
deb http://archive.kalyxo.org/ experimental main
apt-get install nxserver nxagent
nxsetup --setup-nomachine-key

This is not really secure, because it uses the default nomachine SSH key
without password, but it's really easy. All users can login with the
normal password. Take a look at /home/.nx and in /etc/passwd at the user
"nx".

nxagent          nesting X server with roundtrip suppression
nxdesktop        nesting X server with roundtrip suppression
nxlibs           common agent libraries
nxproxy          X protocol compression proxy
nxserver         The FreeNX server based on NX technology
