Download and install the NoMachine Enterprise Client for your system. You can download the NoMachine Enterpise Client here:
https://www.nomachine.com/download-enterprise#NoMachine-Enterprise-Client
Note: The normal client will also install a NX server on your machine, so unless you want remote desktop access to your own PC as well, use the enterprise client.
After you've installed the NoMachine client, open it and add a new connection.
Enter a Name for the connection and add the IP number or hostname for the Host you are trying to connect to.
- Port = 4000
- Protocol = NX
Next select Configuration. Make sure Use password authentication is selected and Use UDP communication for multimedia data is checked.
Click connect.
