The author even mentions in the article "No machine"
Which I think is pretty funny. I haven't used it or set it up. I suppose I should try it.
NoMachine is the company that makes the NX protocol. That's all. X2Go is the free implementation of NX/NoMachine that we all use.
Well the freely available NoMachine is more like a team viewer replacement. You only have the single shared session. It also has remote support tools like chat and a whiteboard.
When did that change? I used to use that and it was like X2Go.
I think a while ago. If you want their terminal server version you have to pay for it.
They also have a web based version, but it's also only the paid version.
So Chrome allows you to join and save the default application to open the session. Firefox still asks for the exe every time, save run, etc. I guess I will be using Chrome for screenconnect. Thanks for the help, Jared.
NoMachine (NX) is a great option when you have a Linux server to run it on. Does the Linux box have LAN access to the boxes that you want to reach from it?
Ok, so what? Am I supposed to install a GUI into these?
Yes, TeamViewer is a remote GUI viewer. Without a GUI what are you expecting TeamViewer to even do? What would it show, a blank page? Without a GUI there is literally nothing for TeamViewer to attach to and show to you remotely.
Exactly - you should be using SSH to connect to a command line, not TeamViewer.
This could easily have been a separate and new post of
"I was going through some old post and found airbackup mentioned in this topic. It looks like this product was killed off, the URL still works, but resolves to TeamViewer's main website and has no SSL."
What's the benefit to the extra thread, though? Even better to have it on the old one. No negatives to "old" threads.
