# Ubuntu

# On server
Enable remote desktop access.
> sudo apt install vnc4server xfce4 xfce4-goodies
Disable the vncserver desktop:
> vncserver -kill :1
Replace the config in ~/.vnc/xstartup with:
`#!/bin/bash`
`startxfce4 &`
# Arch
Install tigervnc, then run it to set a password:
> vncserver
You'll get a session number.
Shut it down with the 'kill' command and the session's number:
> 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
> sudo vim /etc/systemd/system/vncserver@:1.service
Then enter:
