NoMachine NX SSH Problem

Led Zappa · 01-24-2008, 08:35 PM

I just built my first linux box using CentOS dual boot to windows. I am up and running and things are working pretty well. I would like to be able connect remotely.

I have tried to get NoMachine working and I keep getting this error. I am totally frustrated.

NX> 203 NXSSH running with pid: 5984
NX> 285 Enabling check on switch command
NX> 285 Enabling skip of SSH config files
NX> 285 Setting the preferred NX options
ssh: connect to host 192.168.0.129 port 22: Connection refused

Things I have tried to fix it.

I am trying to connect from a Vista laptop connected wirelessly through my router. I have added a rule to allow port 22 traffic to the router.

I have checked to make sure my Linux box is listening on port 22.

I have tried changing the nx user manually through the command line.

I have copied the nx ssh key from Linux to Vista and imported it into the "NoMachine" client.

I have connected the Vista Laptop to the Desktop with a crossover cable and was able to ping Linux box, still got error from client

Help.......

Can you have a look in /var/log/messages and post the info about SSH and/or NX? There may also be info in /var/log/secure or /var/log/syslog depending on your distro.

I am just getting up to speed on this Linux stuff, but I think this is what your asking for.

Those last few lines are saying that when an ssh daemon attempted to start, it failed because another one was already listening on port 22. Does your SSH work properly at the moment?

The way I have mine set up, I run NX server and have it listen for connections on localhost. To connect to it, I set up an ssh tunnel from the remote PC (for example a windows PC at the office), and tell NX to connect to the ssh tunnel. Following are typical entries from my server logs:

Code:

Can you grep your logs for similar entries and post them here please?

Led Zappa · 01-25-2008, 12:41 AM

I am really new to Linux. I have been an MS Admin for years. So I am just learning how to get around. I will try and figure out how to use grep and get the info you asked for.

I do not know how to test if SSH is working. I did find a site that said the "error: Bind to port 22 on 0.0.0.0 failed: Address already in use." was because IPv6 and IPv4 are both enabled.

http://forums.fedoraforum.org/archiv...p/t-26887.html

But I don't know if the instructions are right for disabling IP6, not that that is a good solution.

I tried the suggestion below by removing the # from in front of the line "ListenAddress 0.0.0.0" in my sshd_config file. It didn't work.

Quote:

If you're not using IPv6, just disable it in sshd_config:

ListenAddress 0.0.0.0
#ListenAddress ::

Anyways, I'll keep trying and look for that info you asked for.

Thanks, LZ

Edit: So I downloaded Putty and was able to connect use SSH so it appears to be working. I logged in and was able to list files. On to the next thing.

gilead · 01-25-2008, 12:27 PM

That's good news then - if SSH is working, then NX is next. At it's simplest, grep searches for a string in a file, so the following should do the job:

Code:

grep NXSERVER /var/log/messages

Led Zappa · 01-25-2008, 01:31 PM

So just to make sure things were clean, I uninstalled this morning and reinstalled around Jan 25 11:04 log time. The Client still gets the same error. Here are several results using grep with different ARG's.

EDIT: Nothing really shows up in the logs after trying to execute the client from my Vista machine.

Thanks again for not giving up on this.

At the moment it's not starting because it can't find its config file. Do you get anything back with any of these commands?

Code:

gilead · 01-25-2008, 01:58 PM

The file permissions are the same as mine. I re-read your log messages and it looks like nxserver is being passed --install instead of --start Can you check that it's being passed the correct options at startup?

If it is, you should be able to run nxclient on the Linux box and create a local connection.

Led Zappa · 01-25-2008, 02:16 PM

I don't know how to tell / where to look to see "it's being passed the correct options at startup". When I boot up I see it try to start and I see a message that says it's already running and then an "OK", but no error messages on the boot screen.

I ran it locally and it fired right up, but I got this error message.

Code:

Sound server informational message:

Error while initializing the sound driver:

device /dev/dsp can't be opened (Permision denied)

The sound server will continue, using the null output device.

The top menu bar says:

Code:

NX - webhut33@localhost.localdomain:1001 - test

EDIT:

Does that mean it is connecting on port 1001 locally instead of using port 22 and I am I correct in assuming it's not using ssh?

gilead · 01-25-2008, 02:35 PM

No, the 1001 port is being used by nxnode (another part of the nx suite). For example, from my logs:

Code:

Jan 25 16:03:26 fender NXNODE-3.0.0-88[6794]: Using port '1105' on node 'fender' for session 'unix-desktop'. Logger::log nxnode 5823

Where you say "The top menu bar" - is that being displayed in the title of a terminal window or is it something else?

Also, to find out how/where nxserver is being started, you can run the following:

Code:

grep -ir nxserver /etc/*

Looks like a serious error eh?:

"ERROR: $NODE_ROOT/bin/nxserver doesn't exist"

Not too bad. I'd have expected a line like the following somewhere in /etc/init.d/nxserver:

Code:

NODE_ROOT=/usr/NX

If it's not there, you can add it and try again.

The other files named like S*nxserver and K*nxserver are symlinks to the main file and control the starting and stopping of nxserver as run levels change. Unless you're manually changing run levels, don't worry about them.

Before I tell you how I got it working I'de like to thank you for all your help. I learned a lot just by working on this.

Now for the bad part. It ended up that Norton was blocking the client even though I had added a rule and had thought that I had made sure it was not the problem (See SSH telnet working with Putty). I completely disabled it and it ended up working. I haven't figured out how to fix Norton yet, but I can work on that later with Symantec.

I hope I didn't waste too much of your time and I did learn some things, so thanks again - LZ
