    Complete Linux noob here, so bear with me.

    I’ve purchased a server from Hetzner that runs Ubuntu, and I am the root user. I’ve used FileZilla to put NoMachine_6.7.6_11_amd64.deb file onto it, and the installation goes just fine. But as soon as I issue the command “/usr/NX/bin/nxclient -admin”, it throws the following error:

    992.705 Utility: WARNING! NX personal directory has not been set.

    Googling the issue was fruitless. So what is the problem here?

    Hi. If you want to start the NoMachine client you should execute /usr/NX/bin/nxplayer from a terminal, or just use the NoMachine entry in applications menu. The nxclient application is not meant to be started manually, it needs the communication with other NoMachine processes in order to work correctly.
