Here are a set of Architecture diagrams that were put together for the Web. I found out recently that we not everyone has seen these or has access to them.

Disable a Run/Share across network
You have done a \\machine_name\C$ and now you want to break the connection without reboot the current host machine.
Show the link by using the following:
cmd>net use
Delete the link by using the following:
cmd>net use \\machine_name\C$ /del
Getting Ubuntu SSH Server running, allows nomachine to work too
No SSH - No No Machine
I've been using No Machine to remote into machines for quite a while now and all I can say is that I'll never go back to VNC.
I recently completely reinstalled my fileserver with Ubuntu 8.10 and installed the no machine server in the recommended way. I fired up the client and got a "connection refused on port 22".
It had been so long since I did a fresh installation of Ubuntu that I'd forgotten that Ubuntu ships with a SSH client but not the server. I found some useful info here.
To get your system up to speed all you need to do is:
sudo apt-get install openssh-server openssh-client
You can test it with:
ssh your_user@localhost
Now your system can frolic in its No Machine goodness!

Importance: High
Encryption Algorithm used is DESede:
Triple DES Encryption (also known as DES-EDE, 3DES, or Triple-DES). Data is encrypted using the DES algorithm three separate times. It is first encrypted using the first subkey, then decrypted with the second subkey, and encrypted with the third subkey.
Technical Notes for Reference:
C:changeMancomhalwsecurityDESedeEncrypter.java
public static String ENCRYPTION_ALGORITHM = "DESede";
Cipher cipher = Cipher.getInstance( ENCRYPTION_ALGORITHM );
