NX Free Edition – Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron

13 May 2008 sebastian Linux, 4   Switch language:

After searching for some RDP-like solution for Linux, i found NX Free Edition from NoMachine. With NX Free Edition you can transfer the desktop or single applicatons to the FreeNX client. The transfer run over ssh so you can establish an encrypted connection.

Server Installation

First you have to install the SSH Server:

aptitude install ssh

After that, download the Debian Pakets from the NoMachine Website:

wget http://64.34.161.181/download/3.2.0/Linux/nxnode_3.2.0-5_i386.deb
wget http://64.34.161.181/download/3.2.0/Linux/nxclient_3.2.0-9_i386.deb
wget http://64.34.161.181/download/3.2.0/Linux/FE/nxserver_3.2.0-7_i386.deb

dpkg -i nxnode_3.2.0-5_i386.deb nxclient_3.2.0-9_i386.deb nxserver_3.2.0-7_i386.deb

Notice: The version may be changed, please visit the download page.

You need the client paket on the server, because it contains some required libraries.

Client Installation

On the client you need only the client paket:

dpkg -i nxclient_3.2.0-9_i386.deb

Now you can start “NX Client for Linux” over the menue.

You can also download the client for Mac OSX or Windows:
Windows Client | MAC OSX Client
