Hello,

The free version of NoMachine doesn’t support SSH connections. You should check point 1.3 of the installation guide:

https://www.nomachine.com/DT09K00056

TR06J02727 is related to the a very early beta version of NoMachine, which supported the SSH protocol.

In answer to your questions, when you use a NoMachine product with SSH support then:

1. In /var/NX/nx/.ssh/known_host is a public key.
Files: default.id_dsa.pub and restore.id_dsa.pub are only backups.

2. The privet key of a user nx is in: /usr/NX/share/keys/server.id_dsa.key
