"stable" means that the packages in this directory are compiled on debian sarge, which is completely unsupported by the Kanotix project and might be removed any time without prior notice! The packages in this repository might be outdated, contain serious security flaws and are completely untested, use them at your own risk!

deb http://debian.tu-bs.de/project/kanotix/stable/ stable-backports main contrib non-free
deb-src http://debian.tu-bs.de/project/kanotix/stable/ stable-backports main contrib non-free

In case you only want NX related packages, the following repository line is sufficient:

deb http://debian.tu-bs.de/project/kanotix/stable/ stable-backports nx
deb-src http://debian.tu-bs.de/project/kanotix/stable/ stable-backports nx

Etch/Testing

deb http://packages.debianbase.de/etch/i386/nx/ ./

Server

• install packages NX, FreeNX
• setup and start FreeNX (first time)

nxsetup --install

--setup-nomachine-key Allow login with the key shipped with the NoMachine client.

                       This can be a security risk. So it is not recommended.
                       Use this option on your own risk.

• start FreeNX (otherwise)

nxserver --start

Client

• install packages NX, FreeNX, knx
• start knx

 Login/Password: as usual
 Connection name: <whatever_you_want>
