Hi apacheomega,
To answer your questions, yes, NoMachine can do all of that 🙂 That’s exactly what it’s for. By installing NoMachine for Linux on the server you want to transform you will be able to access it remotely and all the data that is on it. It will be as if you were sitting in front of your computer at home: work on documents, listen to your tracks, watch your movies, transfer files to where you are and so on.
To get started you can refer to: https://www.nomachine.com/getting-started-with-nomachine
Other tutorials are in the support tab of the website, scroll down until you get to Documents & Tutorials.
Based on what you have written, there is no need for a huge amount of RAM. There should be enough to run a system. 1GB should do though you could probably get by with less than that. Red Hat is among the supported distros, as is Fedora.
The software is designed to work on computers with minimal HW requirements. Although the software may work with inferior CPUs or reduced RAM, for best performance NoMachine recommends you match the listed requirements.
- Intel Core2 Duo, AMD Athlon Dual-Core or equivalent
- 1 GB RAM
- 74 MB free disk space
- Network connection (either a LAN, or Internet link: broadband, cable, DSL, etc.)
If you are using NoMachine for Android as your client, not all services will be available such as printing and smartcard authentication.
The Anywhere functionality will be introduced along the development of the new version 5, which is presently in testing and should land in the next few months. In the initial release of version 5 the Anywhere software will be disabled. The plan is to introduce it in Beta just after the outstanding bugs are resolved. Initially it will be invitation-based, so that we can collect the feedback and make the necessary adjustments before opening it to the wide public.
It was last updated in December 2014 but I will ask our dev team to check it again to make sure nothing major has changed in the past month that the article doesn’t document. Bear in mind that the article gives general guidelines for some of the most popular distributions. As you yourself said things are changing all the time drastically in Linux, and each of the hundreds of variants are all different. We’ll check against Red Hat 7 and update the article accordingly.

Hi, to be able to help (I understand that you are using version 4 on both client and server sides) we need you to send us the complete set of logs from client and server.
Please follow the instructions here: https://www.nomachine.com/AR07K00677. Also, please clarify what OS you have on the client/server side and it’s version. From what you have written it’s not clear if your laptop is the machine you are connecting from or to. If the logs are too big to attach below, any attachments can be sent to forum[at]nomachine[dot]com.
Which product did you install on the server? Remember Workstation, Terminal Server, Cloud Server and Enterprise Server all offer the virtual desktop functionality (point 1 in the how-to). If you are using the free version on the server side, you might want to consult this how-to for headless servers: https://www.nomachine.com/AR10K00710.
The difference between a package for evaluation and a package created for our customers is that only this last one includes the H.264 codec. Using the Production Version downloadable from your customer area means that you will be able to use the H.264 encoding, provided that your client has it. Hence an uninstall and reinstall is requested server side. If you have further questions about that, or any other topic, don’t forget you can open support tickets in the customer area.
There’s also a howto available: https://www.nomachine.com/disabling-access-to-your-local-desktop
Logs would be useful as an nxserver process running at 100% is not normal. Follow the instructions here and submit to issues[at]nomachine[dot]com making sure you reference your forum title.

I would like to prevent nxserver to start at every reboot. Is there a way to do it?
See the image I attached. You can access this via the !M (Monitor) icon in the task/system try and then select ‘Show the connection status’. Click on the on/off button and the dialog should appear.
Attachments:
root@rainkin:~# xauth -f $AUTHFILE add :0 MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 $COOKIE
xauth:Â file add does not existThis means that $AUTHFILE was not set. I.e it’s empty.
Are you executing this? AUTHFILE=$HOME/Xvfb-0.auth
After that step you can do: echo $AUTHFILE to ensure that the variable was correctly set.
If you are using one of the terminal server range (you posted your topic in the section for this range of products) you can simply start a virtual session without having to do any of the above.
But, as I see, number of files in ICE directory still increasing, but not so quick :
[root@termserv8-med ~]# find /tmp/.ICE-unix/ | wc -l
342Further investigation shows that this is a leak from Gnome resources and not leftovers of NoMachine.
For single application, so running just Firefox rather than connecting to the desktop (Gnome or KDE etc) you need to select “Custom session”.
