NoMachine NX is a fast terminal server system based on the X11 protocol. In addition, NX also translates and embeds the MS Windows Terminal Server and VNC protocols into X/NX. NX is an order of magnitude faster than VNC or X11 and can run on bandwidth as narrow as 10 kBit/sec.

By embedding RDP and RFB, it enables users to compress and accelerate remote Windows and VNC sessions. NX lets you work fluently even across slow links like modems.

The NX project provides a suite of libraries and X11 proxying agents implementing efficient compression and optimized transport of X11, SMB, IPP, HTTP, and arbitrary protocols like audio over the Internet.

What's New in This Release:
This release provides the standard package for Mac OS X, and ships NX components as Universal Binaries.
The possibility of deploying any additional font directories to NX Client for Windows was added.
It also consolidates fixes made on the 2.0 branch and solves a number of problems, including the consumption of 100% CPU by the X11 agent and the inability of the client to connect to the font server even if it is reachable.
