@parkerlreed, there is an option in the PKGBUILD to disable nomachine service autostart, you only need to change it to no, also there is a banner during installation informing you "No Changes To Automatic Service Start And Firewall Automatic Rules" if you don't touch the variable.
@brittyazel, fixed.
The post install command enables the service automatically...
Might want to make a note of this in the post install script in case the user installing it only wants to use it as a client.
For anyone having issues with NoMachine not using h.264, it's an issue with the libstdc++.so.6 included in /usr/NX/lib. Just rename this to libstdc++.so.6.old or something, and restart NoMachine and h.264 should work (granted you need to have everything else set up correctly too). This error is common when a software program comes bundled with a verseion of libstdc++ that is out of date compared to the one in Archlinux. (looking at you MATLAB and Steam)
@runnytu, perhaps it might be usefull to add a command to the build script that renames this file so that people won't run into this issue.
thanks huitseeker

Somehow after the installation I ended up with bad licenses and service wouldn't start, had to get the *.lic files from a proper 6.0.66 installation.
Anyone know how to fix the typing slowness when connected to another linux machine? Really it is not the typing that is slow, but the refresh of little areas of the screen. Sometime I see the typed letter only if I drag the window a little. Very strange...
Here's a patch to enable x264 for a much better experience over the default VP8: https://pastebin.com/uGN7TbA2

Since nomachine 7.1.3-2 the default behavior of the package is StartNXDaemon Manual and FirewallConfiguration 0 on a new installation, if you want to change this, you need to modify PKGBUILD build options with your desire behavior:
BUILD OPTIONS
Set to y to enable nomachine service autostart
_autoservice=n
Set to y to enable firewall autorules
_autofirewall=n
END BUILD OPTIONS
