Can I access NoMachine host via Firefox on FreeBSD?

[dinster]

Based on my reading – there is no native client for FreeBSD.

But I understand, web client can be used. So, does it mean I can use Firefox browser on FreeBSD to connect to my NoMachine server (Windows Host)?

How is the performance difference between Native Client and a Web Client?

I have tested so far the Native Client on Ubuntu Linux connected to Windows 7 (Host). The speed is awesome.

Tq in advance !!

Hi dinster,

Sorry for the delay.

Yes, the FreeBSD client is not supported, but you can access your remote desktop over the Web.

Usually, the performance should be the same. Default webplayer settings will use mjpeg codec and this works perfectly in most cases. However, if you need to use webplayer for video playing/editing tasks, we would recommend that you enable webrtc.
Hope this helps!
