Hi, I saw the screenshot that you sent to us to show us what you would like to remove in terms of details 🙂 (just so others understand it’s the ‘Recent connections’ panel in the Player GUI, in ‘List view’). It’s currently not possible to tell the player to show less detail. We can definitely evaluate the possibility of making this information “less”. You would just like the connection name to show up and nothing else? I ask because you also cut out the IP address/hostnames, but I imagine you did that for privacy reasons.
Hi, NoMachine runs on El Capitan. There is a known issue which you can check out here:
https://www.nomachine.com/TR10M06094
Can you send us those attachments to forum[at]nomachine[dot]com, so we can confirm if it’s the same?
What you need is the Workstation for Linux, if what you want is a virtual desktop on Linux. Take a look at the following:
What is the difference between physical desktop and virtual desktop?
https://www.nomachine.com/AR10K00700Differences between NoMachine for Linux and NoMachine Workstation for Linux
https://www.nomachine.com/AR10K00702That happens because NoMachine should be installed after installing Gnome (or any other desktop). NoMachine, at installation time, tries to detect what your DE is and set up the system to start it, without any need for the system administrator to intervene in the basic setup. This can only work if the DE is already installed and configured as the default at installation time. You can change the DE that is started by default at any time, and obviously add a new DE that is installed later.
So if you installed GNOME when NoMachine had already been installed, you need to set some keys in /usr/NX/etc/node.cfg.
To run a custom session: please modify 2 keys, DefaultXSession and CommandStartGnome into:
DefaultXSession “/etc/gdm/Xsession gnome-session”
and
CommandStartGnome “/etc/gdm/Xsession gnome-session”
Please remember to remove “#” at the beginning of the line.
If you also wish to have access to a full virtual desktop via “Create a new virtual desktop” please also change the key DefaultDesktopCommand in the abovementioned file into:
DefaultDesktopCommand “/etc/gdm/Xsession gnome-session”.
You can also uninstall NoMachine and install it again, then all those keys will be set automatically.
In its current version, customizations without the permission from NoMachine are not possible. This is something that the sales team can you help you with. I suggest you contact them using the Contact Us link in the footer of the website.
There is nothing to configure. One of NoMachine’s first priorities to work out-of-the-box is security as you can read in our online documentation:
https://www.nomachine.com/AR10K00705
https://www.nomachine.com/AR11K00739If you prefer, you can set up key-based authentication with the NX protocol as described here:
https://www.nomachine.com/AR02L00785
Alternatively, you can use SSH. This is a feature available in the Enterprise range as mentioned in article AR11K00739 above.
If you really want to go into detail about the different types of authentication that we support, check out the document about Authentication
https://www.nomachine.com/DT07M00088For your question about the broadcast feature on LAN, you can disable it. See the tutorial here: https://www.nomachine.com/finding-other-nomachine-computers-on-the-same-network
Can you send us the logs? Please check this document for instructions.
https://www.nomachine.com/DT07M00098Send them to forum[at]nomachine[dot]com.
The free NoMachine product doesn’t support SSH based connections methods.
Check that you are using the latest version with default NX protocol. This will connect on port 4000. To check that you are using the NX protocol, open the GUI, right click on the connection, and then ‘Edit’.
The output of status you pasted is correct:
[…]
NX> 162 Disabled service: nxnode.
[…]
which means that the nxserver was not able to find local X server, which is correct in case of headless hosts.
