Systemd service does not work

[jrespeto]

Issue:

With a new installation and starting the service with systemd, the nxd service is not loading and requires a –restart to get it working:

Hi, something similar to this has been dealt with before in the forums already. Please take a look at https://forums.nomachine.com/topic/enabling-a-user-does-not-enable-it. Does it help?
