| NX software for graphical remote access to linux is available for login to the following server:
| |
| | |
| * nx.uib.no
| |
| | |
| The NX software is a free (nxclient), more effective and easy configurable alternative to xwin-32, VNC, VNC-SSH and similar products, with software accelerated OpenGL support. All data transmission are encrypted and include remote graphical access (X.org) to linux computers also from external networks. The installation consists of two steps.
| |
| | |
| # Download and install the NX client | |
| # Configure the client and add the server-key
| |
| | |
| ==Installation of the NX Client for Windows==
| |
| Download the NX client software from the following site:
| |
| | |
| * [http://www.nomachine.com/download-client-windows.php http://www.nomachine.com/download-client-windows.php]
| |
| | |
| From a windows computer where you dispose an administrative account, run the downloaded *.exe file to install the NX client software. (There are also available free client software for mac, linux and solaris.)
| |
| | |
| ==Configuration of the NX client==
| |
| | |

| |
| | |
| Then click the Save button and the OK button to proceed to the login screen where you add your userid and password.
| |
| If login fails, please check all setup again - when working you may fine tune your preferenced settings. That should be all!

| |
| | |
| Some versions of nx-client lack the "Keyboard custom" entry. You then select keyboard layout from inside GNOME/KDE (gnome-keyboard-properties), or you select "Run the default X client script on server" when customizing desktop (see above) and place something like this in your ~/.xsession file:
| |
| <pre>setxkbmap no
| |
| /usr/bin/xterm</pre>
| |
| | |
| UiB ITA now runs the "NX Server for Linux" from [http://www.nomachine.com/ http://www.nomachine.com], with following limitations:
| |
| * max 1 active sessions for each user
| |
| *SSL encryption for all traffic must be turned on
