NoMachine 4 Preview 6 install

I've been trying to get NoMachine 4 installed on my Arch system for a few days now I can't figure out what is going wrong...

For the install I did:

$ su
# ln -s /etc/rc.d /etc/init.d
# cd /usr
# tar xzvf /home/username/Downloads/nxserver-4.0.181-7.x86_64.tar.gz
# /usr/NX/nxserver --install redhat

It all installed fine and I also added this to my sshd_config

RSAAuthentication yes
AllowUsers username nx

All seems good and well until I try

# /usr/NX/bin/nxserver --start

And then it gives me this error

NX> 700 Result: 
NX> 500 ERROR: Cannot start service: nxserver 
NX> 500 Authentication as user nx using the NX SSH key-pair failed. 
NX> 500 This may be due to the configuration of your SSH server. Please 
NX> 500 ensure that the location and file name of the SSH authorized 
NX> 500 keys is the same in both the SSHD and NX server configuration 
NX> 500 files and that the nx user is listed among the accepted users 
NX> 500 in the SSHD configuration file. 

Also trying to get a NX connection fails from remote and local.

I'm still using the default nomachine key so it shouldn't have a problem with a generated key.

I'm guessing it has something to do with my sshd since I also tried freenx and nx-all from AUR and none worked.

Please help! I can't do VNC anymore, the speed is killing me.
