[FreeNX-kNX] OpenNX windows x FreeBX RHEL

Hi,

as I see at:
http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/opennx/index.php?title=OpenNX_on_Windows

the current version of OpenNX for windows replaces only one part of
the nomachine NX Client and won't be a real replacement (more or less
only a small test). Therefore I would see it more academical to
compile it for Windows. I agree to your points but it seems that they
can't be fullfilled by the current state of development of the OpenNX
Client (at least by using Windows). I would suggest that you stay
currently with the closed sourece NX Client from nomachine till the
OpenNX Client is more mature (again for Windows).

Cheers,
Florian

> I understad time is limited and appreciate any effort. Please let me explain why OpenNX client for Windows is impportant to me:
>
> 1. Most companies I provide IT consulting services do have only windows desktops, so OpenNX currently is unusable to them
> 2. NoMachines is not developing as open source anymore, I wonder for how long the will keep the freeware client and wheter they'll turn it into adware / crapware
> 3. Having a full open source solution is nice
>
> If I had the skills to build and contribute myself I would do. But I offer to test, send bug reports, whatever I can do to help once someone provides binaries. And if soneone has hints on how to get debbuging information from fritz binaries at http://www.fritz-elfert.de/downloads/ I'll try.
