FreeNX server on 64bits?
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. Leonardo M.

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?

xclients and remote display (WAS: Re: freenx server)
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 I'm guessing that is the reason why it's so out of date and broken.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.

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) 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.

request: upgrade freenx server
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.
