Right out-of-box for both server and client with NX protocol, connection timed out. If I connect client and the server on the same centos machine, it works.
Somehow, I think that the NX protocol on port 4000 does not work for me if the client is on a Windows 7.
Note that if you are using bridged connection then gnome remote desktop sharing option may not get enabled as networks do not get detected as reported for Ubuntu OS at -sharing-no-network-selected-for-sharing-problem-in-unity-control-center In such cases it is better to use nomachine which works properly on low bandwidth links and also works properly with wayland without requiring to switch to Xorg
I'm connected to a remote system over nomachine enterprise. We use an internal application that I believe is essentially xforwarded from another machine as I run it - it runs there, and outputs the information to me graphically.
We face slugginshness in desktop such as moving Window from one place to another, scrolling in GVIM etc. It reduces productivity. Gucamole is better than VNC ( may be nomachine as well) but it's still visible.
