Hi Thusitha,

NoMachine allows you to chose the connection protocol. While NX, NoMachine’s
own, is the default and works great, I personally don’t know how to limit it
to select users. However, if the server is linux, you can choose to connect via ssh
then the standard sshd_config settings in /etc/ssh/sshd_config or its equivalent
on the server side can be use to control users access. The relevant line in that
file is AllowUsers. Be sure to restart sshd after making changes.
