Does this help?
How to set up key based authentication with NX protocol
https://www.nomachine.com/AR02L00785Hi Nicu, the message you pasted is from Cloud Server which is used as a gateway or broker to access other NoMachine servers, and also foreign servers. Its suitable for organizations which want to create their own “cloud of servers”. You should add other servers from our Enterprise range. Here you can find more information:
https://www.nomachine.com/adding-servers-to-nomachine-cloud-server-via-the-user-interface
If you want to just access the remote desktop on your Ubunu host, install the free NoMachine edition. You can download it from here: https://www.nomachine.com/download.
We have 3 tutorials available depending on your provider (Azure, Amazon, GCP), all for Linux. Take your pick 🙂 Go here: https://www.nomachine.com/all-documents and scroll down to the bottom, the last three links of the Tutorials section might interest you.
I think you should start your comparison here: https://www.nomachine.com/comparison-terminal-server-products
If you want to be able to run multiple individual desktops on the same Linux host and each user connect to their own, you could start with the Workstation edition which allows up to 4 Linux desktop (what we call virtual desktops).
If, on the other hand, you want multiple users to be able to connect to the same physical desktop so they are all seeing the same thing, Enterprise Desktop will let you do this. Compare the free version with Enterprise Desktop here: https://www.nomachine.com/remote-access-for-everyone.
What is the difference between physical desktop and virtual desktop?
https://www.nomachine.com/AR10K00700You can download the evaluation software of all Enterprise products by opening the menu on the website -> Download -> NoMachine Enterprise Products Evaluation.
On the connecting side you can either keep NoMachine (the free server/client) or if you just want the client, download and install Enterprise Client for your OS.
You cannot force a remote connection to the physical display whilst the checkbox for “Require permission to let remote users connect” is checked in the Security settings of the server (the PC you want to connec to). Take a look at the tutorial I passed to you in your other topic, and you should also look at the Guide here: https://www.nomachine.com/DT10O00155#2.2. If that checkbox is ticked, it is assumed the owner is physically sitting in front of the computer (server) and can accept the incoming connection when prompted.
The first checkbox you see in the Security tab lets you decide whether the server can accept the incoming connection automatically or ask for the desktop owner’s authorization. Quoting the guide:“Select Require permission to let remote users connect when the explicit approval of the desktop owner is necessary. This option applies only to connections to the physical desktop when the connecting user is not the desktop owner. If the incoming user is the desktop owner, he/she will always connect and no request for authorization is issued.”
The request for desktop owner’s authorization is enabled by default. If the owner of the desktop has left their desk, then you should ask them to configure NoMachine access accordingly in order to share their computer with you.
@Acki, please refer to https://www.nomachine.com/protecting-the-host-screen-during-a-remote-control-session
Section “Enabling automatic screen lock when disconnecting”. By default, it is disabled.
The display of a remote computer can be protected further by enabling the system’s own screen lock which will be activated automatically as soon as the last NoMachine user disconnects.
- Select the ‘Security’ tab of the Server preferences UI.
- Check the box ‘Lock the physical screen on disconnect’ (Fig. 4).
You can turn this feature on or off at any time. You will need to provide the administrator’s username and password in order to enable it or disable it. Is the screen locked when you disconnect once you’ve checked the box?
2019-01-07 21:24:17 597.201 36547 NXNODEÂ Â ERROR! Application terminated too early.
This means that the application run by NoMachine node (i.e. the desktop environment or a custom application) terminated immediately after being started. This can happen when the command specified for launching the desktop or the custom application is not appropriate. So you need to check this. Please refer to the article here:
How to solve ‘session negotiation failed, application terminated prematurely’
https://www.nomachine.com/AR08N00898We opened a Trouble Report for this particular issue.
Improve retina support for NoMachine graphical user interfaces
https://www.nomachine.com/TR12P09056NoMachine Network is in the last phase of development. I can’t give you an exact ETA. We are happy to add you to a beta or testing program – you can also sign up to receive notifications/updates regarding this functionality using the ‘notify me’ check box on the Feature Request page.
Hi Mitof,
sorry you couldn’t find the information that you were looking for. Submitting some feedback to the webmaster (contact us form in the footer) would be of help so we can make some improvements to the right pages 😉
I would suggest that what you’d need is Enterprise Desktop. This will give you access to the physical Linux desktops you mention.
From what you’ve described, what would be a better fit is the Network service we are creating. More about this is available here: https://www.nomachine.com/FR07J02731. With Network, you will be able to access your remote computer without needing to know its IP address. So once installed on the remote host, you won’t have to worry about whether the computer is sitting behind a firewall, or whether certain ports are open, and so forth.
Hi ratata,
we’ll definitely look at how to improve tips and documentation (and make it easier to find), but we’re glad to know NoMachine is now working correctly in your set-up.
p.s. In your original post you asked “where to look to see what codec that was used in a current session.” Apologies for not answering earlier. When you connect, open the menu, select Display and then ‘Change settings’. See section 5.7 of the guide here: https://www.nomachine.com/DT07M00087.
Keep using NoMachine! 🙂
Hi, we’re reproduced the problem and are investigating further to find a suitable fix.
At this point, it might be an idea to open a support ticket in your customer area (you mention that you’ve purchased a subscription), that way you’ll also be able to submit more information without worrying about it being made public as well as get access to any hot fix we make.
Hi,
Can you tell me which topic thread you are referring to?
Automatic disconnect has been available since version 4. Check out the instructions on how to set it here:
