NX Free Edition
 NoMachine NX is a
Terminal Server and
Remote Access solution based on a comprising set of enterprise class
open source technologies. It allows users to run remote X11 sessions
across slow or low-bandwith connections, often at almost native speeds.
The NX project provides a suite of libraries and X11 proxying
agents
implementing efficient compression and optimized transport of X11, SMB,
IPP, HTTP, and protocols like audio and video over the
Internet.
NX uses the SSH protocol to send its data, making use of
public key cryptography
for authentication purposes. When an NX client connects to a server,
the client program initially logs into the server using the 'nx'
username, authenticated with the SSH public key method.
It is available in a
number of editions: NX Server Free Edition, NX Enterprise Desktop
Server, NX Small Business Server, NX Exterprise Server, and NX Advanced
Server. Only the first of these server editions is available
under the GPL license, the remaining servers are released under a
proprietary license.
