Install VNC On Linux
To install VNC on Linux, you can follow these steps:
- Update the package index on your system:
sudo apt-get update
- Install the VNC server:
sudo apt-get install tightvncserver
- Run the VNC server for the first time to set up a password:
tightvncserver
- You will be prompted to enter a password for the VNC server. The password can be any length and can include letters, numbers, and special characters.
- Once you have entered the password, the VNC server will start running on the default port 5901. You can connect to it using a VNC client on another machine.
- To stop the VNC server, use the following command:
tightvncserver -kill :1
- You can start the VNC server again using the following command:
tightvncserver :1
Note: The above steps are for Ubuntu-based distributions. The commands may differ slightly for other Linux distributions.
