Whats the best solution for remote controlling Gnome linux workstation from macOS on a local network? @linux
Wow, y’all are overcomplicating this.
Gnome has native VNC support. On your Linux machine go to Sharing, enable Remote Desktop, set a username and password.
On your Mac, use any VNC client you like, they’re all over the App Store, and connect by IP address to your Linux machine with the username and password from settings.
Although you can install more software, you don’t have to.
Check out RustDesk.
I like the simplicity of x11vnc, or if you’re on Wayland, wayvnc.
Via web with novnc.
I’m sorry, and I know everyone recommends it, but RustDesk is not fully baked. Every time I have tried it, I consistently have issues with the Mac client.
I’m also looking for a good, reliable, and fast Remote Desktop solution between my Mac and my Linux rig. It used to be TeamViewer, then they got to be greedy. Then it was Chrome Remote Desktop, but it doesn’t work well on Arch (for me, anyway) and I’ve de-Googled myself as much as I’m able. Then I tried RustDesk and I had nothing but issues.
I may go back to NoMachine. It wasn’t perfect, but it at least worked most of the time.
No machine? I assume there’s a mac client.
Rustdesk, Anydesk, TeamViewer or VNC.
I mean its unconventional, but moonlight + sunshine
@abraham_linksys seriously? lol thanks - I’ve used most of the solutions recommended some not, i’ve done my share of searching - just looking for input / I have frequent Microsoft remote desktop use and want something as solid and feature rich thats not Microsoft & to use with linux and mac / in hopes to use RDP and windows remote systems less…
I…don’t remember posting this. Sorry dude, drunk me decided he didn’t like your question. I had a lovely night too this was just me being a dick on the train for no reason.
Anyway hopefully someone else was helpful lol
