In order to install NoMachine 4 (server) or higher on a Slackware distributions, you need to install the compressed tar package.

Installation instructions have to be executed from a terminal and use the sudo utility. If you don't have sudo installed, log on as superuser ("root") and execute commands below without sudo.

To install NoMachine to the default location  /usr/NX :

1. Copy the tar.gz package to the /usr directory

    $ sudo cp <pkgName>_<pkgVersion>_<arch>.tar.gz    /usr

2. Change directory to /usr and extract the archive.

    $ cd /usr
    $ sudo tar zxf  <pkgName>_<pkgVersion>_<arch>.tar.gz

3. Run the setup script.

    $ sudo /usr/NX/nxserver --install slackware
 

Your NoMachine server should be now up and running. To verify that you may execute:

$ sudo /usr/NX/bin/nxserver  --status
