Upon further investigation i noticed that this message appears in the log file:
Info: The session was closed before reaching a usable state.
Info: This can be due to the local display refusing access to the client.
Info: Please check authorization provided by the remote application.
Session: Session terminated at Tue Aug 1 11:09:15 2017.
On the server side i noticed that there is no message popping up saying that the client is logging in. also, there is no NoMachine icon in the system tray.
i wonder if there is something weird going on the server side since the server doesn’t even know the client is trying to log in.
