The next screen will ask you about the server to which you areĬonnecting. Leave the default of port 22 and change the internet connection These settings can also be changed byĬlicking on the Configure button when NoMachine NX is started.įor the ECE Linux computers here is what one would fill in: When you run NXClient for the first time you will be asked for some information to create a saved session. Nexus users can get this file from Q:\eng\ece\NXWin\share\keys
To copy it one can use psftp (Putty Secure FTP) or similar software. usr/NX/share/keys/default.id_dsa.key to your local computer.
The Ubuntu install (just use the package manager) goes quickly but I found it awkward to figure out how to run. Linux, Mac OSX and Solaris are supported as of Jan 2011.
The client software is provided by Windows, Proceed to the section Running NXClient - The Connection Wizard Non Nexus Users One may copy the whole Q:\eng\ece\NXWin directory to another Windows computer In the path, then run Q:\eng\ece\util\nxclient.bat On Nexus simply use Start -> Run to run "nxclient". The scheme uses compression and offers greatly improved performance off campus. NX client is another way to graphically connect to the Linux servers. Cadence, Matlab and Altera Quartus either did not work or were exceptionally slow. Using XMing and Putty to provide access to graphical software on Linux servers has had issues. When you run the program just ssh from within one of it's windows: Off-campus then NX Client is vastly superior. Winter 2016 - If you are using a newer version of MobaXterm - then configure your setup to use NoMachine login and not "system login"Īs well use SSH protocol and not the NX protocol.Īs of summer 2013 we've found that MobaXterm is much easier to setupĪnd performs equally well for on-campus users. Nexus users can find the client here: Q:\eng\ece\thinlinc490\tlclient.exe MobaXterm In contrast NoMachine is licensed and supports We do not have a licensed server we are limited to 10 connections. NoMachine NX Client Setup NOTE: Please use ThinLinc or MobaXterm if possible! ThinLincĪs of Summer 2014 we setup a free ThinLinc server on and A client can be downloaded from
