Oct 11, 2013 at 3:00 comment added xtian Yes. v4. And they do allow 2 free client connections...
Oct 11, 2013 at 2:44 comment added Journeyman Geek There's a new NX version, which while closed source, kicks ass from my initial experiments. Just worked through my initial windows experiment, ubuntu is next. seriously worth checking out

Oct 9, 2013 at 20:04 comment added xtian @Zoredache, I took a quick look and freerdp is available in CentOS EPEL repo: freerdp-1.0.2-1.el6.i686.rpm and, its also available for Arch. The question I want to know about is, given the interoperability issue, which clients work with which servers. Wikipedia has a nice round up of some alternatives, but it doesn't tell mention if any one solution works with another--or that peeps are steamed bout the Freenx fiasco.
Oct 9, 2013 at 19:49 comment added voretaq7 Mod @xtian Re: "What is the replacement for FreeNX / NX Technologies?" - that sounds like an excellent question for the main site. There are a lot of options (a few have been mentioned here). If you give us a summary of what you're trying to do and tell us you're trying to replace FreeNX we might be able to point you at alternatives.

Oct 9, 2013 at 19:47 comment added Zoredache What is the replacement? - the xfreerdp server looks pretty promising. It permits RDP access to a X11 instance. Still has some bugs here and there, but freerdp seems to be the most actively developed GUI remote access tool these days.

Oct 9, 2013 at 19:46 comment added xtian And I guess Michael wants a question. Your wish is my command...
Oct 9, 2013 at 19:44 comment added xtian Z, and after taking a peek at your rep., I'd guess there is very little you can't oversight here on servf
Oct 9, 2013 at 19:43 comment added xtian Zoredache, I don't know if you can see history but both questions had -2 when I first checked. I didn't say I was being treated badly, I'm saying my questions were get'n s#at on. Right now, everyone seems to me just fine.
Oct 9, 2013 at 19:40 comment added xtian Chris S. meet Xtian (Christian) S, What up Cuz! ...
Oct 9, 2013 at 19:36 comment added Chris S Mod I can't say with certainty, as I haven't downvoted them. But I can guess that your first question reads like a diary entry more than a "question". The second uses "cuz" and that's reason enough for me to stop reading and downvote a question.
Oct 9, 2013 at 19:36 comment added Zoredache So the two questions you linked to, didn't have any comments or downvotes when I first looked at them, so what is your problem? Why do you think your questions are being treated badly?
Oct 9, 2013 at 19:36 comment added Sven @xtian: NoMachine NX. It's the original and it works. It's not cheap though, but there was a limited version usable for one user that used to be free, but I am not sure if this is still the case.
Oct 9, 2013 at 19:34 comment added xtian I've already gotten the memo about binaries and non-repo installs at Cent. The project may not be commercial, but it is professional.
Oct 9, 2013 at 19:32 comment added Chris S Mod "it is technically located in a home." <-- It's not described in detail in the help center but we differentiate between "home" the location and "home" the environment. The former is just a location and unimportant, the latter encompasses conduct, expectation, standards, and generally professionalism (or the lack thereof in "home environments".
Oct 9, 2013 at 19:32 comment added xtian What is the replacement? Right...I could tell you but I'd have to kill you...
Oct 9, 2013 at 19:30 comment added Sven FreeNX is a dead project which was last updated 5 years ago and never really usable to begin with. Using such a piece of software violates our "prime directive": Professional system administration.
