KeymasterHonestly I don’t know what user name and password I have to enter here. Is it referring to my router’s user name and pass?
My Desktop doesn’t have a password to enter.NoMachine requires your computer’s account credentials. If you don’t use a username and password to normally access your computer, like when you switch it on, you will have to create one. You cannot use NoMachine to connect without your computer’s account credentials (see image extract from the tutorial which is below). This is a security requirement, otherwise everyone would get access to your computer if they were to find your computer on the network.
Are you connecting on a LAN (like at home where you have both your computer and your mobile device on the same network) that way you can make a simple test. I assume you are.
On your computer that you want to connect to, does the welcome screen show you two IP addresses? One is for access on the LAN you are on (home maybe?) , one is for access over the internet. Let’s not worry about ports (the number after the : ) for now. But first of you all you need to create yourself an account on that computer.
You seem to have gotten to the last phase in the image which therefore means that the app is able to find your computer and you are using the correct IP address. What’s missing is the account credentials.

KeymasterYes, it is possible.
No luck so far.
Do you mean you are not able to install? Do you mean you are not able to connect because of an error message? If so, please attach here a screenshot of the error message you are receiving.

KeymasterThanks for the correct logs 🙂
They show that you are possibly encountering this issue here: https://www.nomachine.com/TR06R09772 . There is a workaround in the TR. Please try that and let us know.

KeymasterThe logs show nothing wrong with pack=16m-png. The logs show a failed session attempt. We can see that NoMachine creates a virtual display. This happens when the physical display is unavailable such as in headless scenarios. Is the Linux server headless? Are you still getting a white screen? What client are you connecting from?

KeymasterPlease check your email inbox, I’ve sent you precise instructions on what to submit.

KeymasterHow this is related to NoMachine, I’m not sure.
You have a remote MonolixSuite and you want a shortcut on the desktop there, which was there in the past and now when you connect it’s not there?
Britgirl
KeymasterWhere is the smartcard located? If it’s already been added and it’s recognized, you should go to the connection menu and follow the steps in chapter 4 about Devices, and specifically for smartcard readers, https://www.nomachine.com/DT10O00156#4.5.
August 19, 2020 at 08:02 in reply to: Physical session unavailable in NoMachine unless I physically login #29046Britgirl
KeymasterThe yes/no prompt is issued when the local X server cannot be found. NoMachine is then able to use its own display service (which is an embedded X server).
Are you the administrator of the remote host you are connecting to? Was something changed?
So have I understood correctly that it’s working now? If it happens again let us know.
Britgirl
KeymasterApologies for the late reply. The logs don’t really show much other than possible UDP issues. Can you disable UDP on the player side? To do that select the connection icon, right click and select Edit, click Advanced and make sure the ‘Use UDP’ box is not flagged.

KeymasterLogs received.
What desktop environment are you connecting to by the way?
There’s not enough information in the logs to know what is going wrong. You would need to enable debug on the server side, reproduce and resubmit the logs. Make sure the player logs are included from the client side.

KeymasterWhat version do you have installed, the latest one? What steps did you follow to disable and switch off the nxserver? Did you try with
nxserver --shutdown
run from a CMD console?Complete instructions on how to switch of NoMachine server and services are available on our website. Did you follow these instructions?
How to shutdown NoMachine and disable the automatic startup at boot time
https://www.nomachine.com/AR11P01005or perhaps these here?
Disabling the automatic start-up of NoMachine at boot time
https://www.nomachine.com/AR04L00800We tested on the fly just to be extra sure that there was no weird behaviour. Everything works correctly.

KeymasterCan you send us the logs from both the connecting Windows client and remote Linux server? So there will be two separate sets.
Please see here for instructions on how to extract logs (once you’ve reproduced the problem) and send them to forum[at]nomachine[dot]com. -
