Your second answer came before I could write my answer which was was that I think xmodmap doesn’t change anything permanently, and that a restart or log out of the server would probably have fixed things.
But you say your # key isn’t working? Are all the other keys working correctly? What mac version is it? What Linux distro and desktop environment is it? You say your local keyboard on the Mac is GB. Have I understood correctly?
NoMachine remaps the keyboard modifiers to emulate the remote desktop keyboard. If connecting to Linux, please try with ctrl+c and ctrl-v.
We have a Feature Request which will allow users to modify their own keyboard mapping:

We evaluated adding it as a feature (using a configurable key for example) and we decided not to move forward with the implementation because it was not possible to do across all our supported platforms. Sorry to disappoint you.
Thanks for reporting this. We have reproduced it and inserted a Trouble Report which you can monitor here:
Hi, thanks for reporting and have reproduced it. We’ve opened a new Trouble Report here:
This looks like this problem here, which is not a bug in NoMachine but in Xorg. Please try the fix that we provided and follow the steps to verify if it is this problem or not.
Keyboard layout is wrong when sharing a physical desktop
https://knowledgebase.nomachine.com/TR09Q09412I may have misunderstood what you wrote, but for sure NoMachine cannot, and should not, pass the password to your system’s lock-screen.
We’ve tried workaround with dummy xorg – and it works fine – without requiring an extra restart. There could be something wrong with your configuration maybe? Can you try disabling the Display manager like in point 3 of this self-help article?
How to solve black screen on Linux headless machines?
https://knowledgebase.nomachine.com/AR03P00973The image you show is not the NoMachine login – it’s a system login. So for example you need to look at the OS manual on how to set auto-login.
At the moment no, but we have plans to implement a way to be able to configure how the modifier keys are mapped.
Provide an interface enabling user to configure modifier keys
https://knowledgebase.nomachine.com/FR10M02977This feature is under heavy development right now.
