KeymasterA known issue on macOS is the one described here: https://kb.nomachine.com/TR10S10377
It also affects later macOS versions and the workaround is to re-add nxnode in the list of allowed programs in System Preferences -> Screen Recording. A fix for this TR is scheduled for v8.If the workaround described there doesn’t help, we would need logs from both sides if possible. Please check the instructions here https://kb.nomachine.com/DT11R00182, and submit the logs to forum[at]nomachine[dot]com making sure to use the title of your topic as the subject of your email. Thanks!

KeymasterHi 🙂
NoMachine doesn’t yet support Pipewire, this will be added in the next release.
As for reconfiguring audio settings without uninstalling, you can use the command:
sudo /usr/NX/scripts/setup/nxnode --audiosetup

KeymasterHi,
The problem appears to be in ESXi and how it doesn’t handle multi-monitors in remote connections, and not in NoMachine. In our tests of remote connections to virtual machines in VMware ESXi environments, the multiple monitors feature is not supported (in VMware).
NoMachine connects you to the desktop environment that’s installed on the remote host. That desktop can be a physical one or it can be running in a VM, it doesn’t matter. You will connect to the physical display/monitor running there. In the case of a headless Linux, so no physical monitor attached, NoMachine is able to create a virtual display for you. NoMachine also lets you switch between those displays if it detects multiple displays or monitors available there:

If you also have multi-monitors on the client side, and you need to connect to multiple virtual displays on the server side, you could try NoMachine Workstation which provides the functionality of “NoMachine virtual desktop sessions”. Read more about this here:

KeymasterHi, virtual displays running Windows are not detected by NoMachine. This feature is available for the Linux operating system only.
When connecting to a Windows host/instance where you have installed NoMachine or Enterprise Desktop, you are connecting to its physical desktop, so on the client-side we only mirror the existing desktop with its physical display. If the computer you are connecting to has physical monitors attached, in that case NoMachine detects them and lets you switch between them on the connecting client side (https://www.nomachine.com/switching-the-view-between-multi-monitors-during-a-remote-desktop-session).

KeymasterHi,
thanks for taking the time to report this. The GUI preference changes don’t currently support pam_google_authenticator but we will be adding it in one of the next releases. In the meantime you can continue to edit the CFG files as you have already been doing.

KeymasterHi, thanks for reporting. We have reproduced this and have opened a Trouble Report.

KeymasterDo you know why the App store version doesn’t work?
The app is for iPad and iOS only. We will disable the download of the app on to macOS desktop to avoid confusion between which software to download.

KeymasterHi
Have virtual Linux box (ubuntu 20.04) with NX running. If I log in at the virtual console, I can connect by NX and am connected to the console desktop. However, if the start screen is visible, I can’t gain access to NX even though it’s running as a service and, as far as I can tell, should allow authenticated login.
Please see this topic which looks similar to your issue.

That user found this article useful:

https://kb.nomachine.com/AR04R01083how can I have multiple people login…I need workstation and that would allow for independent users to login.
Correct, you need Workstation for Linux or one of the other products in the Linux Terminal Server suite. Check out this article: https://kb.nomachine.com/AR10K00702
“Workstation allows you to run up to 4 virtual desktops (including custom sessions/single applications) on a Linux host. These virtual desktops are replicas of the operating system residing on the host e.g. Ubuntu. Each virtual desktop is separate from the physical OS, and each other.”
the remote machine running with multiple monitors and having the client machine make them available for use.
If you have multi-monitors on the server side and are connecting to the physical desktop, you will be able to switch between the available monitors on the client side using the multi-monitor switch. I’m not sure if this answers your question 🙂

KeymasterSo you have the Small Business Server v7 installed on the computer you want to connect to? From your Windows client, when you open NoMachine, can you see the Small Business Server machine in the Machines panel?
Please submit screenshots or describe the steps you are taking to connect from your Windows client to the NoMachine server via LAN.

KeymasterFrom the logs it appears that the agent (nxnode) is hanging. We would need more information.
Can you find the nxnode pid and run this command in a terminal:
sudo gdb -batch -ex “thr apply all bt” -p <nxnode_pid>
Then show us the whole output. If you have more than one nxnode process running, repeat for each nxnode.
Thanks.Britgirl
KeymasterThe next update for the NoMachine Mobile app, to be released after we have released version 8 for desktop, will be based on the new APIs provided by the most recent iPad versions which will mean full support for mouse devices connected to the iPad. As a temporary workaround, you could use touch gesture to perform the right mouse click and the mouse scroll.

KeymasterHi, is it possible you installed the NoMachine app on your Macbook?. Try the .dmg package from our website instead.
Britgirl
KeymasterHi, can you provide more details? A screenshot showing the “no desktop found” error and the steps you take which result in that error dialog would be useful. What macOS version is it?
Additionally, logs from the Mac on the server side would also be helpful. Please follow the instructions here and submit them to forum[at]nomachine.com making sure to reference the title of your topic as the subject of your email. Thanks!

KeymasterWe haven’t been able to reproduce this issue using the same set-up. Make sure that before changing any parameter in the player.cfg on the computer you are connecting from, you exit the player (click on the !M icon in the system tray and select Exit the player). Once all nxplayer processes are closed, then edit the cfg file and try again..

KeymasterHaving a local user account on the remote computer you want to connect to is pre-requisite, like you have on the other PC that you have tried and successfully connect to (like when you connected from your tablet to the Windows PC you used account credentials to log in to the desktop, for example) You must always use a username and password to log in to the desktop that is running there.
