FreeNX server on 64bits?

2011-03-31 Thread Leonardo M . Ramé
Hi, I wanted to install FreeNX server from ports on an amd64 machine, but I 
found the port only supports i386 architecture.

Here's the output:

martin@server:/usr/ports/net/freenx$ sudo make install clean
Password:
===  Installing for freenx-0.6.0_3
===   freenx-0.6.0_3 depends on file: /usr/local/NX/bin/nxagent - not found
===Verifying install for /usr/local/NX/bin/nxagent in 
/usr/ports/net/nxserver
===  nxserver-2.1.0_7 is only for i386, while you are running amd64.
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/net/nxserver.
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/net/freenx.

Does anyone knows if there's a way to install it on 64bits?

Thanks in advance.

freenx

2009-08-27 Thread Giuseppe Pagnoni
Dear all,

I am trying to use nxclient on a FreeBSD machine (i386, 7.2 Rel). I
installed freenx but I can't figure out how to use it to connect to a
remote machine.  It seems that the port does not put any executable
into any standard path.  If I enter in a terminal:

/usr/local/NX/bin/nxclient

I get the following message:

getopt: illegal option -- o
Terminating...


I had previously used NXclient but through a GUI interface.  I
couldn't find a way to start a GUI here or even figure out the
required command line syntax (no man pages installed, no --help option
available,...).

Did anybody know how to make this work (if it actually does..)?

thanks in advance for any suggestion

best

   giuseppe

pretty much you need to update the ports to even install freenx/nxserver, I
tried updating the freenx one but got a bit lost with the new freenx
tarballs that the developer provides. And I know these two ports are the
most wanted, for some people

xclients and remote display (WAS: Re: freenx server)

2007-12-22 Thread Jack Barnett

   Thanks, yea, but I don't think he's maintaining it any longer?
   In ports it's version 1.4.x, but nomachine.com has latest version has
   3.5.x
   My friend emailed nomachine.com and he said they refused to support
   any of the xBSD or offer any help on getting a working port for the
   xBSD world.
   I'm guessing that is the reason why it's so out of date and broken. :/
   Are their any alternatives besides VNC?
   We have that and it's working good (TightVNC tunneled though SSH), but
   would like to just run one 'window' and have it displayed on our
   workstation.
   For example,  Run an xterm on FreeBSD server and have it displayed on
   an XP or Linux workstation.

Not really, all I know of is FreeNX and VNC.

As for their refusal, is it out of pure ignorance that they don't wish 
to support BSD?  I thought they had at one time supported FreeBSD (the 
assumption is based on the fact that it exists in the ports tree).

Too bad, though.  I tested FreeNX on a debian install (unfortunately) 
and the client ran smooth on my windows machine, with the unfortunate 
exception that it has 0 dual-monitor support in fullscreen mode.

I found this though: http://www.deweyonline.com/nx/freebsd.html

Highly betting that the maintainer's page for this (if that is the 
maintainer) that first section looks promising.  The link works to 
download the 6.2-RELEASE version.  It's possible that might work with 
X.Org versions later than 7.1; I haven't personally tested it myself.

Btw, which FreeBSD release are you running?

FreeNX

2007-10-22 Thread Novembre
Hi,

Is there going to be an updated version of the FreeNX port? The
version in the FreeBSD port tree is 0.4.4_3 which hasn't been updated
in two years. The current version is 0.7.1 though.

Thanks a lot,
Novembre

request: upgrade freenx server

2007-05-27 Thread WarrenHead

Hi,

I would like to request a newer version of the NX server.

I have installed the nxserver on my 6.2 machine, from:
/usr/ports/devel/nx
which is now version:
NXSERVER - Version 1.4.0-44 OS (GPL)

I have trouble connecting to this server with modern clients.
I have read that this is caused by the backingstore option of nx that
was changed by the nomachine.com people since version 2.0.0.
In short, newer clients do something that the older servers cannot 
handle and promptly refuse the connection. It is called the 
'Backingstore problem':


This issue is not new and has been written about in various locations, 
such as:


http://marvin.as.arizona.edu/~jharris/linux_tips/freenx-howto.html 
(see heading error 3)


and

http://gentoo-wiki.com/Talk:HOWTO_FreeNX_Server#Solutions_for_NX_Clients_versions_2.0.0_and_FreeNX_0.4.x_and_0.5.0


The solution that is offered is to change something in the code of the 
clients. This might work fine if you are using clients which code you 
can recompile, but this is not neat for when you are using windows 
and/or when you are offsite somewhere on someone else's machine, trying 
to get into your server.


My solution would be to get the current freenx server of FreeBSD 
upgraded to a more current version.


Unfortunately, I don't know how to go about that.

True, this problem might also be solved by using older clients, but I 
haven't been able to find those; Nomachine.com is not hosting them.


Cheers, Warren

This is one of many, many ports available in the ports tree, so the
FreeBSD people aren't really responsible for it. If you check
http://www.freshports.org for example and search for nxserver you
get some details about this port, including its maintainer.
So you might ask him if he is interested in updating the port to the
newest version.

  Has anyone had any experience running FreeNX in a FreeBSD Jail. It

 I've done it, so it is possible to get it to work. I can't remember now if
 there were any partiuclar issues in setting it up -- one suggestion would be
 to check the log files for something that might shed light.

I forgot -- there was an issue when I set this up. There is code in
the nxserver, in nxcomp/Loop.cpp, that checks whether the connection
is coming from an expected IP address (or something like that). What
seems to happen is that it gets confused by the way that 127.0.0.1 in
the jail gets translated to the jail's IP address, so it thinks they
don't match.

I made a patch for net/nxserver that kind of fixes the problem, but I
should emphasize that this isn't a proper patch -- it just bypasses
the check entirely, rather than trying to do it correctly in the jail.
So it probably defeats something which contributes to security. That
having been said, here's the patch:

hi,

I'm using FreeNX and the linux-nx-client. Everything is working fine and
I installed both from the Ports.
After installing FreeNX I just run /usr/NX/bin/nxserver --useradd USER
and it worked. I just have some error messages from the NXClient (some
problems with the Linux Emulation).
