Important Notices
Customers of Enterprise Cloud Server Cluster v8 who wish to upgrade to v9 should refer to the instructions at: https://www.nomachine.com/AR11V01257.

The RPM packages are now built using a more recent version of RPM in order to support also SHA256 digest and to allow signature verification on recent RPM-based systems. On old OS versions like Open SUSE 11.2 and earlier, it will be necessary to install NoMachine tar.gz packages.
The current version doesn't provide full support for Wayland-native virtual desktops as required by adopting GNOME 49, a possible temporary solution is to downgrade GNOME or adopt a lightweight desktop. More details are available here: https://kb.nomachine.com/AR10W01330
