# On server
|
|
|
|
Enable remote desktop access.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo apt install vnc4server xfce4 xfce4-goodies
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Disable the vncserver desktop:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
vncserver -kill :1
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Replace the config in ~/.vnc/xstartup with:
|
|
|
|
`#!/bin/bash`
|
|
|
|
`startxfce4 &`
|
|
|
|
# Arch
|
|
|
|
Install tigervnc, then run it to set a password:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
vncserver
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You'll get a session number.
|
|
|
|
Shut it down with the 'kill' command and the session's number:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
vncserver -kill :1
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This will forward over port 5900+x where x is the session number. For the first server, that's port 5901.
|
|
|
|
# Create a systemd service
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo vim /etc/systemd/system/vncserver@:1.service
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then enter:
|
|
|
|
> [Unit]
|
|
> Description=Remote desktop service (VNC)
|
|
> After=syslog.target network.target
|
|

|
|

|
|

|
|

|

|
|
> WantedBy=multi-user.target
|
|
|
|
Then enable that service:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo systemctl start vncserver@:1.service
|
|
```
|
|

|
|
