I did not noticed any issue with using NoMachine with Azure.

What I am thinking is that possibly you are not using correct login form when connecting to the domain user ( user@DOMAIN or DOMAIN\user ).

Additionally can you verify typed password on Windows login screen by using reveal button.

Please check following article for compiling drivers: What to do if USB support is disabled on Linux with NoMachine 6 or later installed

I would propose that after selecting desired resolution, you should disable “Resize remote Display” and uncheck ‘Ask the desktop resolution upon connecting’.

Please see following article for additional details Changing how you view the remote host.

We think that possibly nxfs.kext is not loaded. Please can you check following article: How to allow audio, device sharing and USB forwarding on macOS (‘System Extension Blocked’ since macOS 10.13).

NoMachine already offers some information for monitoring and performing some administration tasks when using Cloud Server and multi server environment {LINK to CS} in the version 7. Following version 8 Cloud Server will provide much more admin tasks of the connected servers.

In the same time if you are preffer to stay with version 6, maybe you can use some of the monitoring tools by configuring them to monitor some processes or commands.

I can present one simple script that can show number of connected user and if some of the services are disabled :

#!/bin/bash

usersConnected=<code>sudo /etc/NX/nxserver --history | grep -c Connected</code>
echo "INFO: Number of connected users on this server is: $usersConnected"

sudo /etc/NX/nxserver --status | grep -i 'Failed\|Stopped\|Disabled' ; nxstatus=$?
if [ $nxstatus -eq 0 ]; then
   echo "INFO: NoMachine has problem"
else 
   echo "INFO: NoMachine all services are operational"
fi

Issue of physical desktop not detected could be issue with server configuration where local server is not running. Can you check if the local Xorg/Wayland service is running?

One of the connected user can enable remote cursor pointer. It can be done by opening Menu panel -> Input -> selecting “Show remote cursor pointer”.

More information about menu panel you can find in the following document Guide to the Functionality in the Menu Panel.

Possibly you can edit following key and set it to PhysicalDesktopMode 1 in the server.cfg.

# 1: Restricted. User connected to the physical desktop can
#    interact with the desktop except for resize operations.

Perfect, I am glad that it helped.

I understand you in relation with the price of Cloud server, but i would recommend that you try its functionalities.

When we want to speak about NoMachine servers behind NAT, basically you are going to be able to use any NoMachine server products behind firewall, but in order to use and control them from public network, you will need to setup port forwarding of different public port to the specific internal machine. For ex:

publicIP:24000 --> IP1:4000
publicIP:34000 --> IP2:4000

As from the error message you mentioned in NoMachine “Authentication failed.” it looks that you did user wrong host username and password.

Please see following article Username formats supported to log-in to NoMachine by password authentication.

I feel that issue is more related to gnome-terminal and its implementation. I found some articles that speaks about problem https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-terminal/-/issues/194.

I noticed additionally when I dont have any user logged on physical display this command worked for me, but i tried on Ubuntu 21.04.
DISPLAY=:1002 dbus-launch gnome-terminal

I am happy that my information helped you.
