No Time For NoMachine

As some of you may already remember, I already have a fairly good remote desktop tool for accessing my own home office when I am out of down. Secured with SSH, using a VNC client and X forwarding, I have simply not looked into other alternatives until now.
FreeNX is another option for those looking to have the option of remotely accessing their desktops when away from their home or office. And based on this Ubuntu howto, it seems as if using FreeNX along with a client such as NoMachine would be totally doable.
So for those who are simply looking for a bit more of a straight forward way of accessing their PC remotely instead of using VNC with SSH and X forwarding, FreeNX might very well be just what the doctor ordered.

Or you could just use our NX Free Edition which provides connections for 2 concurrent sessions and 2 named users.
