When you have succesfully logged ssh to your workstation: When prompted for a username and password, enter your CRSID and your admitto credentials. Click "Open" and this should ssh to citadel forwarding those ports. Then under Connection->SSH->Tunnels enter the following and click on Add.Īt this point under Session->Saved Sessions, you may wish to give it a name and save the settings. If you are trying to connect from a windows machine you may like to use putty to set up the tunneling. Then start the VNC server and point your client at localhost. In your ~/.ssh/config file, add the following lines substituting in the fully qualified name of your workstation: Ssh -L 5900:localhost:5900 start the VNC server and point your client at localhost You can obtain this by typing "hostname -f" in a terminal window. You will also need to substitiute workstation.ch.uk with the fully qualified hostname of your workstation. Then just connect your vnc client to localhost.įor the following commands you will need to substitude CRSID for your CRSID. X11vnc -clientdpms -ncache 10 -rfbauth ~/.vnc/passwd -display :0 -localhost Ssh -L 5900:localhost:5900 Set a VNC password (you should only need to do this once). You will need to be on the department network (e.g VPN, ChemNet): Ssh to your workstation and forward some ports (in this example just called workstation). To do this, simply lock your screen before you leave it (Ctrl+Alt+L). I tried connecting with both TightVNC Viewer and VNCViewew. its strange because the desktop is all gray but if I do crtl + alt + del it shows me the screen: So I have TigerVNC, KDE and Ubuntu 22.04. I followed this guide here (but I installed TightVNC): LINK.
#Vnc connect guide install
If you have an existing desktop session running on your linux workstation, you should be able to connect remotely to it with VNC. My goal is to install the KDE desktop (I did) and connect via VNC. We suggest remmina (linux), Real VNC Viewer (Windows, OSX). On the machine you are connecting from you will need a VNC client. On your workstation you will need a VNC server: You can connect to an existing desktop session on your linux workstation with VNC.
