Sharing the computer screen in Gnome between the server and the client requires a working network connection and a visible “route” between them. This demo will also run Fedora Workstation on the client, but the operating system actually should not matter too much, if it runs a decent VNC client. Setting up the client to display a remote screenĪ client is a computer that connects to a service (or content) provided by a server. If you have more networks available, you can choose on which one the screen will be accessible.For a little more protection, do not use your login password here, but choose a different one. Check Show password to see what the current password is.The password can only be 8 characters long. If you want to allow connections to people who know a password (you will not be notified), select Require a password and fill in the password.If you want to manually confirm all incoming connections, select New connections must ask for access.Leaving this button unchecked will only allow view-only access to the shared screen. Check the Allow connections to control the screen if you want to be able to control the screen from the client.Switch on screen sharing using the slider in the upper left corner of the window.Switch on sharing with the slider in the upper right corner.In order to use it, you need to switch it on:

How do you show them? Should you take your mobile phone, take pictures of your screen, and send it to them? Should you record a video? Certainly not. However, sometimes a situation occurs when you desperately need a friend, or an expert, to help you with a computer problem, but they are not at the same location at the same time. You do not want someone else to be able to monitor or even control your computer and you usually work hard to cut off any such attempts using various security mechanisms.
