Agent forwarding for Terminal Nodes

[cdelcano]

Hello,

I have a test setup with one Enterprise Terminal Server and two Terminal Nodes.

The nodes have been added to the Terminal server with SSH protocol.

When connecting with the NoMachine client from my Windows machine, with a private key file and agent forwarding, the key is only forwarded when the virtual desktop runs on the Terminal Server. When the virtual desktop runs on one of the Terminal nodes, the key is not forwarded at all.

Is there a configuration setting that I’m missing? Is this a known bug? (I’ve searched, but can’t find any reference to this).

I have tested this through a direct SSH connection, and the problem only applies for NoMachine connections.

Terminal Server and Terminal Nodes on CentOS Linux release 7.7.1908

nomachine-enterprise-terminal-server-6.8.1-1.x86_64 (in evaluation mode)

nomachine-terminal-server-node-6.8.1-1.x86_64 (in evaluation mode)

NoMachine 6.7.6 client for Windows 10

Many thanks,

Cristina
