NoMachine Terminal Access

Remote access without barriers

NoMachine remote terminal is a secure remote shell service that provides both remote command line server functionality and client access through dedicated terminal windows, letting you connect to a system without launching a regular desktop connection, and without even requiring a graphical environment on the target machine. Remote terminal is built for admin tasks such as navigating files and running scripts, all without disrupting anyone working on the desktop or interrupting active sessions. There's no need to rely on separate tools, like PuTTY for example, or open a parallel SSH connection to perform tasks in a remote shell. Just open a terminal window directly through NoMachine. Start a SSH terminal connection on any SSH server and get standard shell access, or run a powerful NoMachine terminal connection and get the additional security and connection features built into the NoMachine platform within your remote terminal session.

Skip the desktop

When your admin tasks don't require a graphical environment, a remote shell is the fastest, most efficient way to get things done. Do all your remote fixing, scripting and administering as if you were sitting in front of the system's own console.

Connect in the background

Need to run commands without disturbing an active desktop session? A remote terminal connection lets you work in the background on any macOS, Windows or Linux computer without interrupting the connected user.

Over IP or Machine Id

How you start the remote terminal connection is entirely up to you. You can use the IP address, or the Machine Id if your machine is on NoMachine Network to connect to the target computer. Either way, it uses its own secure shell, simplifying access to any NoMachine server.

No SSH required

NoMachine remote terminal eliminates the need to install SSH on your server as well. If you are working with older legacy Windows machines that don't have an SSH service enabled, NoMachine terminal connections are the perfect solution to get command-line access through a secure shell.

Unattended access

You can connect to a remote device or server without needing an end-user to be present which is crucial for IT administration and maintenance. Of course, to be able to start a remote terminal connection on the target host, you must have an administrator's account.

NoMachine power, terminal simplicity

Remote terminal connections support both SSH and NoMachine command-line access. Connect to a NoMachine server and you can take full advantage of built-in features and security, including disk sharing, USB forwarding, remote printing and 2FA. Perfect for professionals needing powerful terminal capabilities.

Direct access to Enterprise nodes

If you need to administer nodes of a Cloud Server, you can connect directly using a remote terminal connection instead of hopping through the central gateway and selecting the machine from the list of available nodes.
