NoMachine (the company) has a "pay to play" NX Server.  They also have a
free-of-charge NX Server, but it only allows 2 users to log in at once.
FreeNX is a free version of NX Server, based on the same GPL code that
NoMachine uses in their "pay to play" version.

What is the difference between FreeNX and NoMachine? Is FreeNX the free
two licenses you get if you dont pay?

Rick Stout's Fedora tutorial is ever helpful (and as mentioned
elsewhere, make sure that the client key is correct).

and, yes, put me into the camp of FreeNX fans. We use a FreeNX gateway
for off-site access and then VNC to subsequent machines.

William
