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I'm guessing that is the reason why it's so out of date and broken.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.

Anyone get the freeNX server working from nomachine?
When I try to build it from /usr/ports/net/freenx it says it is broken
under xorg 7.2
I've upgrade to xorg 7.3.x and modified the make file and it builds
everything but nxagent, so it fails to `make install`
install: /usr/ports/net/nxserver/work/nx-X11/programs/Xserver/nxagent:
No such file or directory
*** Error code 71
Yeah, I tried messing around with this a few months ago, it tried to
compile and at the end (which was a lengthy job) it turned out to be a
waste. I was told before to get in touch with the maintainer of the
port and discuss it further.
Funny though, mine failed on nxnode :P

Hope this helps,
