wget http://64.34.161.181/download/3.0.0/Linux/nxclient_3.0.0-89_i386.deb
wget http://64.34.161.181/download/3.0.0/Linux/nxnode_3.0.0-93_i386.deb

After you fetch the packages check the md5sums against those given on the website.

install

Install the packages with the dpkg command.

root@mckinley:/home/ggeller/Desktop/downloads# dpkg -i nxclient_3.0.0-84_i386.deb nxnode_3.0.0-88_i386.deb nxserver_3.0.0-74_i386.deb 

configure

The installation scripts included in the deb packages do the server configuration for you. You have to make sure ssh is running and export the key to your client.

The file /usr/NX/share/keys/server.id_dsa.key is created during installation. You need to copy this file to the client and use it in the nx client configuration dialog.

root@mckinley:~# scp /usr/NX/share/keys/server.id_dsa.key ggeller@harrison:
