Now, initially when I'd attach, it would hang at "Requesting users authorization" but no window would pop up to request the authorization. I checked to ensure that PhysicalDesktopAuthorization 0 was set in server.cfg and sure enough it was. I thought, then, that maybe there was an issue with xauth. I spent about a day troubleshooting that, and eventually tried a different version of XQuartz. I uninstalled everything across the board. Then reinstalled everything across the board and still no dice. Messing with shadowing in the configs proved fruitless and decided to pour over NX's documentation one last time. This time, I saw that it should have installed the nxnode --mirror service, but no such service was running.
I created /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.nomachine.node.plist and pasted the following into it, ensuring that Username was set to my regular user account (otherwise, my session never showed)
Label com.nomachine.node KeepAlive ProgramArguments /Applications/NoMachine Service.app/Contents/Frameworks/bin/nxnode --mirror UserName chrissylemaire RunAtLoad StandardErrorPath /Applications/NoMachine Service.app/Contents/Frameworks/var/log/nxnode_stderr.log StandardOutPath /Applications/NoMachine Service.app/Contents/Frameworks/var/log/nxnode_stdout.log WorkingDirectory /Applications/NoMachine Service.app/Contents/Frameworks/bin/ Debug
I ran launchctl load -w /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.nomachine.node.plist and voila! My screen appeared. It was ugly and smudgy, though, no matter how well I optimized my client settings. Look:
I was wondering if there was a way to mirror my Ubuntu screen to my android OS phone. I know how to mirror phone to PC, but could not find anything about the other way around. I would also want it to be wireless. Thank you!
Splashtop is yet another alternative to TeamViewer that you can use to mirror your computer remotely. Over nine years of its existence, this remote access software has made a good name across the industry by providing a good mix of video quality and latency over the remote connection.
In addition to mirroring another desktop PC, NoMachine offers several features: collaborators can work together on a whiteboard, they can record entire sessions, and access chat functions. This makes NoMachine an excellent tool for collaboration, for remote maintenance, and remote support.
If you are, like me, running SUSE Linux 10.0 - you will need to install FreeNX package (the server) using YaST (freenx is on SUSE CDs/DVD) as well as some client software (to test on local machine) - you can use freeware NX Client (from www.nomachine.com/download) or use Open-Source "knx" - the standard KDE NX Client.
