I try since the morning, to get session shadowing working, but yet no luck.
Additionally to the FreeNX server 0.7.2 I installed nomachine
nxclient-3.2.0-9 and x11vnc-0.9.2-20.
Further I defined a password with nxpasswd.
On the client host, I also use nxclient 3.2.0, there I configured the
session type to be "Shadow", instead of Unix. I first logged in as the user,
using knx. Then I tried started a second shadow session using the nomachine
nxclient, after some seconds the client says:
"Session shadowing not supported on this server."
and the connection aborts.
I also changed the FreeNX log level to 7, but there are no error messages
showing up in /var/log/nxserver.log. In /etc/nxserver/node.conf, I also have
ENABLE_MIRROR_VIA_VNC=1
My NX server is a Xen virtual domain, without graphics card. I start the
node in runlevel 3, without having an X server running. Do I need a X server
to get this running?
any ideas someone?
kind regards
Sebastian
