The program is free and is available for Windows and Linux.In this guide we’ll explain how to install and configure VNC Remote Access in latest release of CentOS 7 and RHEL 7 Desktop edition via tigervnc-server program.
For example, the client that connects to port 5901 will see only a 640x480 area of the top-left screen. Each of these ports will be configured to display a portion of the screen. The server normally listens on a single port ( 5900), but we can configure the server to listen on additional ports ( 5901, 5902, etc). This is very useful to avoid possible intrusion.Īnother interesting option of the server, is the ability to configure “ extra ports”. Server can be configured to accept only a selection of IPs or a range of IPs. Keep in mind the files copy process will take more time, as files should be transmitted over the Internet. We can navigate through any of the panels and copy files from one PC to another. Left panel belongs to local computer ( client), and right panel belongs to remote computer ( server). When we launched file transfers system, we will see a window divided in two panels.
A new window will be displayed that shows the remote PC's desktop, and using our keyboard and mouse, we will control the remote computer.Ĭopy files between client and server is something simple, thanks to “ File Transfers System”, that is included in the program. Clicking on “ Connect” button we'll access to the remote machine. When we launch the client, it asks for the Host address ( server) to connect, and the port ( 5900 by default). This password should be known by the person who wants to connect remotely to the server. When server is installed, it will prompt a password that is used to protect the access to the computer. Software installation and configuration is simple. For example, if a friend has a problem with Windows System, and we want to see what happens on his computer, we will ask him to install TightVNC server on his PC, and we will use the client to connect to his Computer and investigate what happens.
For example, we can connect with TightVNC client to a Mac computer ( Mac OS X Leopard 10.5 or higher), enabling the “ Share screen” Mac option. The remote server can be any VNC ( V irtual N etwork C omputing) server, so is not mandatory to use a TightVNC server. Client: Client allows us to connect to other computers that have a VNC server installed.TightVNC allows our computer to be controlled by other user remotely, and at the same time, allows us to control other computers remotely.
