You had recommended nomachine nx to me a couple of years ago. To put the question differently, right now, if I install the nomachine client on a PC that has not yet accessed my nx server, and then try and connect, a dialog appears saying something to the effect that the security key is not recognized, and would I like to accept it. If I answer yes, the key is imported and stored, and the connection is made - after that, I never get another query about the key when I access from that client. My question is, is there a way to prevent that dialog and import process, and only allow connections from client-computers to which I have manually copied the key into the right location? Everything I'm reading seems to be saying that's the way it's supposed to work out of the box/install, but, if so, I've done something to defeat the default behavior. -- Claude Jones Brunswick, MD, USA -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
