  • Download the TAR.GZ in the /usr directory.

  • Change your working directory to the the /usr directory, and uncompress the package:
    # cd /usr
    # sudo tar -xvzf nxbuilder-3.4.0-xy.tar.gz

  • Publish the application on the Web by copying the nxbuilder directory in the DocumentRoot of your Web Server, for example, if you are using Apache 2.2.0:     
    # sudo cp -a /usr/NX/share/nxbuilder /var/www/html

  • Set the proper ownership to the nxbuilder directory:     
    # sudo chown -R apacheUser: apacheGroup DocumentRoot/nxbuilder

Technology Brief
Data encryption and security

NX security is guaranteed at every layer involved in the communication process. NX uses SSH public-key encryption and 128 bit volatile random cookie generation.

Multimedia support

NX transparently tunnels Linux multimedia channels. Not only does NX play KDE and Gnome system sounds, but you can listen to MP3s played on the server and local workstation simultaneously.

Unified support for all major remote desktop protocols

Thanks to its outstanding compression performances, NX is able to deliver X, RDP and RFB remote sessions using the same client. This is achieved by translating "foreign" protocols into X-Window, the native protocol of NX.
