Hi
If I understand what you have written, you would like to be able to create multiple virtual monitors on a headless machine. We do this already, it’s available in the Terminal Server family (virtual desktops on Linux).
As far as I understand, if the server was not headless, but rather had 2 monitors, I was able to connect to each of them remotely while configuring the client (thus, connecting to the same server in parallel from 2 nx clients), while choosing on each of them different “monitor” of the multiple monitors I have on the server .
This will be possible in the future. For a later version, we are going to implement the possibility to have multi-monitors on the server side which can be managed as separate windows on multi-monitors client side. In each of these separate windows users will be able to apply all the usual settings, like applying a different scaling factor, resizing the window to any size, sending the window to fullscreen and placing the window in any desired location.
Unfortunately, we cannot give a definitive ETA. Development priorities are currently on NoMachine Network (www.nomachine.com/network) and v9. Work on the feature you are interested in may start after that.
Right now, what’s possible is to have multiple monitors on the server and you can cycle through the monitors on your client-side monitor (see https://www.nomachine.com/switching-the-view-between-multi-monitors-during-a-remote-desktop-session).
Additionally, if you have a Terminal Server (Linux) product installed, such as the Workstation, you can have multi-monitors on the client as separate monitors in NoMachine sessions. Doing so lets you maximize the session window, for example, in one monitor only, instead of going full-screen across all the client-side monitors available.
To enable it:
– Open the NoMachine menu panel inside the session (ctrl+alt+0 or click on the page peel in the upper right corner of the window)
– Click on ‘Display’
– Click on ‘Resize remote display’ then on ‘Fullscreen on all monitors’You briefly mention using a dummy display dongle for your headless machine, this is an option. Take a look at our tips for headless machines: https://kb.nomachine.com/AR03P00973.
I understand you have a monitor attached. Is that correct? Is the display perhaps going into sleep mode? Could you try temporarily disabling the sleep mode?
Is the display server Wayland or Xorg?
This is not the correct behaviour and we’d like to check further by asking you to submit debug logs.
Please follow the instructions here and then submit logs from the server to forum[at]nomachine[dot]com.

In the meantime you can try the suggestion in the article (NoMachine will create its own virtual framebuffer) and you would then be able to resize.
Is this server running Wayland or Xorg? If it’s the first, try Xorg and tell us if you get the same behaviour.
More notes about desktops on Wayland are available here: https://kb.nomachine.com/AR02P00969Hi, NoMachine works out of the box with LDAP provided you have LDAP set up correctly. All of the Enterprise installation and configuration guides offer some tips for LDAP (and other) admins.
There is an article in our Knowledge Base for troublshooting any issues that might crop up.
Troubleshooting LDAP and PAM issues on Linux for connections by NX protocol
https://kb.nomachine.com/AR08M00857Thanks for additional nxtrace. We have also reproduced the same issue, related to the clipboard, and are investigating.
Please update to the latest version (8.5) and if you reproduce the problem still, submit logs as per the instructions here:
https://kb.nomachine.com/DT07S00243
One set from the Ubuntu machine and one set from the Windows client.
Send everything to forum[at]nomachine[dot]com using the title of this topic as the subject of your email.
Thanks!Steps to reproduce the problem, on version 8, are also useful.
It’s possible that you have a nxs file in some other location which you forgot about.
From the Player, right click on the connection and select ‘Edit’. Click on “Reset saved preferences and password”.
This issue has only started occurring the last week, previously there were no issues.
What has changed on your computer, anything? Did you update something? What version of Avid is it?
and it only happens when using NoMachine Enterprise.What version of NoMachine are you running? It’s strange that NoMachine was working fine producing audio, and then all of a sudden, the audio quality decreases.
What OS are you connecting from?
“Reconnect” suggests that you can connect the first time and use the session, you then disconnect and then try to reconnect but can’t, which seems strange.
Anyway, take a look at the third option in this https://kb.nomachine.com/AR03P00973. Use the proper command to stop the X server according to your display manager and then restart the server.
What is the version of NoMachine on the Windows machine? What is the version of NoMachine on the server machine? What product, the Free Edition or something else?
What is the desktop environment on Ubuntu that you would like to connect to?
It would help us to know if what versions of the distributions, the desktop environments you are connecting to, and confirmation of the NoMachine version.
Thanks for those.
Are you able to also send us the nxtrace.log file on the client-side machine? The file is usually in %ALLUSERSPROFILE%\NoMachine\var\log.
1) Open the NoMachine UI on your computer -> Player settings -> Input and check option ‘Always show remote cursor pointer’.
Create a new session and see if both cursors jump.
2) Edit node.cfg on the server host and set:
DisplayServerExtraOptions "-nocursorlock"Create a new session and see if both cursors jump.
What do you observe?
Did you install package from our website or from the aur repository? We tried the packages from the aur repo on the fly and they indeed behave in the same way as what you are experiencing.
