similar to: Centos 6.x and Freenx

Thanks much to* Christoph *for pointing me in the right direction, appears to be an issue with the latest Vmware -tools, not sure I did a clean install with the opensource ones to see if they had the same issues but applying both of the fixes in the link post solves the problem with running the latest freenx and nx rpms found in the repo. Thanks again :) On Tue, Feb 28, 2012 at 5:36 AM,

Hi, http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/FreeNX says: NX and FreeNX are only available for Centos 4 and 5 Alternative? Thanks in advance for ideas.

Finally got a chance to install Centos 6.x x86_64 version and having an issue with the latest version of freenx. This is a desktop install on a esxi 5 with all updates and only thing I have installed is the latest vmware tools. When I enable the extras repo and install the nx-3.5.0-1.el6.ay.x86_64.rpm and freenx-0.7.3-8.el6.ay.x86_64.rpm. When I try to logon the desktop pops up but I get the

Hi all, I am new to CentOS and freeNX -- both look really awesome, a huge thanks to all the people making them happen. I am having a problem with freenx that appears to be specific to centos 5. my client authenticates but then no desktop comes up. however, when I connect to a similar machine running centos 4.4, I authenticate and the gnome desktop just pops up sweet as can be. I also have a vnc

I was trying an assortment of things to get a remote X session working (where I had forgotten to install the xauth package...) and noticed that running xeyes kills my freenx session. This happened whether in the NX/freenx session itself or when run on a remote machine via 'ssh -Y', started from a window in a freenx session. Is that a known problem or do I have something set up wrong?

All, I have put in the testing repository a new version of freenx-0.6.0 and nx-2.1.0 for both CentOS-4 and CentOS-5. This is using one set of SRPMS to build on either CentOS-4 or CentOS-5 RPMS. To get files from the testing repository, see: http://wiki.centos.org/Repositories Make sure you have the .el4 packages if testing on CentOS-4 or the .el5 packages if testing in CentOS-5. Please submit

Hi, I've setup a small LAN of two desktops running CentOS 5 in a medical office. Both are connected to the Internet via a small modem/router. Recently I played around with FreeNX on my own desktop, and I'd like to install it on these two computers. On my PC, I just redirected port 22 in the router, so SSH (and thus FreeNX) requests from the outside get redirected to my desktop PC.

There are new RPMS released for nx and freenx in the CentOS-4 and CentOS-5 Extras repository. I normally do not announce that here, as those can easily be obtained on a normal "yum upgrade/update", however in this case there are special actions required *_IF_* you have the x86_64 architecture for either CentOS-4 or CentOS-5 with the current versions of nx and freenx installed. The

I have installed freenx with this article http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/FreeNX but when I use freenx-client on windows to connect to server, I always get an "freenx Authentication failed." client err log output as this: NX> 203 NXSSH running with pid: 1584 NX> 285 Enabling check on switch command NX> 285 Enabling skip of SSH config files NX> 285 Setting the preferred NX

We have created a new version of freenx (freenx-0.5.0-8.c4.noarch.rpm) and moved it to the testing repo. This is based on the code displayed at the LWE in San Francisco ... http://lwn.net/Articles/146825/ http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/8489 (though it is not officially released as stable by the freenx people) This version should handle printing and reconnecting to running sessions much

Hello, I am having problems getting freenx running in CentOS 4.5 i386_64. I know this is not a new problem, however, I havn't found a solution in all the postings I found on the web. I did exactly what is supposed to work and described in detail at http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/FreeNX After doing that I can connect to the server with nxcleint without problem but I get only a black

Ralph, ScottRobbins has a useful note to add to the FreeNX article. You can see it in this Forum post: http://www.centos.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?viewmode=thread&topic_id=14875&forum=40&post_id=51846 Could you give him edit rights to that page? Thanks, Akemi

HI All, I am new to Linux so please bare with me. I am running Centos 5.7 with FreeNX-0.7.3-8.el5 and I have successfully installed everything and configured my first user. However when I log in using the NX Client I see the desktop however I don?t have mouse or keyboard access. Is there a setting I have to apply in order to get mouse and keyboard access? Thanks, Georgi

I was having trouble connecting to the server that I am using for remote development so I updated things and rebooted. Connected into FreeNX nicely after that...wonder if there is issues with memory leaks or something... Anyway, it appears that the nxagent grabbed port 3000 which is what I was using for rubyonrails/webrick (I probably can change that) which sort of tells me that when I first

This topic came up some time back and I pretty much ignored it, but the "itch" came back to find out why. Searching through the FreeNX/knx list came up with the reason sessions did not come up full-screen even though the session definition was set to fullscreen. Apparently there is an oversight in /usr/bin/nxnode, the script is never retrieving the fullscreen flag from the parameters

I've currently got the nx-1.5.0-1.centos4.i386, freenx-0.5.0-8.c4.noarch, and nxclient-1.5.0-141.i386 packages installed on a couple of CentOS 4 update 3 systems and I'm getting the same results on all of them. I got the new version of freenx via "yum update" and it appears to have "broken" fullscreen mode. The connection config file I have been using does have the

Hi thanks for the reply i am really grateful if you can tell me how to make FreeNX work like charm. I am really stuck with it, and after reinstalling the server is definitely pissing off my boss. Please help me thanks. =========================== Please let me review how my FreeNX was screwed up. After i fresh install my CentOS 5, I 'yum install freenx' and so if i am not wrong I

Has anyone built a freenx 7.3 for Centos 5? I'd like to be able to use the session shadow mode on some machines. -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell at gmail.com

I've been running a FreeNX session for several days. During that time, I have occasionally lost the connect and when I re-establish the connection, it resumes where I left off and it was really nice. Tonight I lost the connection and when I reconnected, it started a new session but when I run NX Session Administrator application on the FreeNX server, it still shows the session as
