This is where NX technology shines.

A properly configured FreeNX server allows for suspending the session in use. 
This can be invoked manually or by a sudden loss of connection. Reconnecting 
as the same user will result in resuming where the session left off.

close them. When you resume a suspended session, the client revalidates but 
still resumes midsession, at the point where you left off. "
