This page will describe how to get FreeNX server working on ubuntu.

Add these to /etc/apt/sources.list

deb ftp://ftp2.caliu.info/backports/ hoary-backports main universe multiverse restricted
deb ftp://ftp2.caliu.info/backports/ hoary-extras main universe multiverse restricted

Note: Some people will tell you to add kanotix as a source. Do not do this. It is depreciated

Update your sources {{{sudo apt-get update }}}

Install it {{{sudo apt-get install freenx }}}

Unless you are overly concerned with security, you should choose the nomachine key during the install

Add a user {{{nxserver --adduser <Username> }}} Set a password {{{nxserver --passwd <Username> }}}

You should be able to access your ubuntu box from a Windows box using the free client from [http://nomachine.com NoMachine's website]

Errors

I am not sure what to do about this: {{{Permission denied (publickey,keyboard-interactive). }}} [http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=54357 Asking for help]
