Is the remote server you are connecting to version 6?
I noticed from your original post that you mention “a colleague’s computer”. If you are trying to connect to your organization’s server, it might be better to check that the administrator of the server has not changed something (such as only allowing certain clients to connect).
The logs would be useful at this point to understand what authentication fails. Please submit to forum[at]nomachine[dot]com. Instructions are here: https://www.nomachine.com/AR10K00697.
If you are also administrator of the server, submit those as well. If you are not and the NoMachine server has a valid subscription, it would be better to ask your Administrator to submit a support ticket.
First, can you try a ‘Reset saved preferences and password’? To do that, right click on the connection icon in the GUI and choose Edit. Tick the box ‘Reset saved preferences and password’, then click ‘ok’. Try logging in again.
If that doesn’t help, you need to tell us how you are authenticating – is it via password, private key or kerberos?
hi, what DE is it?
The TR referenced is rather old and concerns version 4, no longer supported. If there is a new bug, we’d need to start a new investigation for the latest NoMachine 6 packages.
We test with as many environments as possible and AFAIK don’t have problems with arrow keys.
Can you check that you have # AgentLegacyKeyboard 0 in the node.cfg. ‘0’ is the default setting (although it would be odd that you have it set at ‘1’).
Enable logs, reproduce and submit them to forum[at]nomachine[dot]com. For safe measure submit both server side and client side logs.

If you are logged in to the OS locally (ie. not via NoMachine software), then it is possible to have a user connect (via NoMachine or Enterprise Client) 🙂 This is still only one connection for us. Maybe this is what happened.
Do I understand it correctly that if I buy the 10pack version for Windows, it means I can only install that version on Windows VMs? and if I had some VMs running Linux/MacOS I’d need to buy those packages individually?
That is correct. Unfortunately, whilst it’s possible to select a mix of Linux distros for the remote servers, you can’t mix Win/Mac and Linux. You would need to opt for individual ones BUT talk with the sales team about pricing because special arrangements can be made.
Happy nomachining!
This article will help you to discover if you have double NAT or not: https://www.pcworld.com/article/3175739/how-to-identify-and-resolve-double-nat-problems.html. The last section provides some tips which you can follow.
You can submit your screenshot by all means – please submit it to forum[at]nomachine[dot]com, not here because it will be visible to everyone.
With a double NAT there’s not much you can do. Take a look here: https://forums.nomachine.com/topic/problems-connecting-to-one-remote-computer
All you can do is wait for NoMachine Network to be released.
I think what you need is Workstation. It would probably fit your scenario better than the free version. You could try the evaluation version.
Hmm. The free version of NoMachine does not limit access to LAN only, I just want to make that clear.
So it must be something else. I suggest you try the following:
1) Uninstall (removing all traces completely) and reinstall. Your screenshot shows no !M icon (which is an indication of the server running) plus your screenshot actually says ‘no server running’. If the server was running, it would show the External IP.
2) If you continue to not see the External IP, from a terminal on the server please run:
sudo /usr/NX/bin/nxserver --upnpmap sudo /usr/NX/bin/nxserver --upnpstatusIt should show something like this:
sudo /usr/NX/bin/nxserver --upnpstatus Local IP 10.0.1.XX Gateway IP 10.0.1.1 External IP XX.XXX.XXX.XXX NX port 4000 mapped to: XX.XXX.XXX.XXX:234843) See the following article: https://www.nomachine.com/AR11L00827
If your home router doesn’t accept UPnP or NAT-PMP commands, it will be necessary to configure it through the router’s admin interface
Hi, the equivalent to the free version for a commercial environment is Enterprise Desktop (installed on the VMs), so we do have a product that caters for your needs (enabling access to virtual machines that you are hosting 😉 ) The moment you start using it for monetary gain, it is no longer personal use IMHO, but you can talk to Sales and see what they say – https://www.nomachine.com/contact-request.
You can compare the two products here: https://www.nomachine.com/remote-access-for-everyone
The users that are going to access your virtual machines using NoMachine can either use the free version or if they prefer the can install Enterprise Client (also freely available to download). It doesn’t matter.
My two cents, if you are going to create 10-15 VMs and provide access to all/some of them using NoMachine, you should buy a pack of 10. That works out at $24.50 per year.
Hi Eric,
have you looked at the tutorial here? https://www.nomachine.com/getting-started-with-nomachine#internet
When you got the IP address from your remote computer to access it over the LAN, you should have seen an IP address for access over the Internet (see fig. 9 and fig. 10).
@kvic, can you please check your email inbox for further instructions.
A ‘connection refused’ error is usually raised if there are no services listening on that port, or if a firewall is rejecting the connection. Can you check whether you can connect with another client to the same server (I take it that this computer is your personal PC). It might be that your university doesn’t allow this type of access from outside?
