## Common questions

### What should I check if Nexterm fails to start after configuration?

Copy .env.example to .env and set the startup values for your install. Missing or wrong values in that file can stop it from starting or connecting correctly.

### Which LDAP or Active Directory fields must be set for login?

Enter the host, port, bind DN, base DN, and user search filter. These values must match your directory exactly, or users can reach the login page but not sign in.

### How can I fix copy and paste in the terminal if it stops working?

Manually allow Nexterm to use the clipboard always without asking in your browser website settings. If permission errors occur, check the client-side console logs for details.

### Can Nexterm manage files and containers besides SSH, VNC, and RDP?

Yes, it can manage files through SFTP and deploy applications via Docker. It also supports managing Proxmox LXC and QEMU containers.
