## Linux Server
For the VNC Server we will be using tightVNC.
`# apt install tightvncserver`
Initial setup and starting VNC server
`vncserver`
You will have to enter a password
Optionally, a view-only password can be created as well.
Kill VNC server
`vncserver -kill :1`
Edit the `xstartup` file in `.vnc` to your liking.
_Example with xfce_
```sh
#!/bin/sh
xrdb $HOME/.Xresources
unset SESSION_MANAGER
unset DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADRESS
exec startxfce4
```
### Change password
`vncpasswd`
You can also add a view-only password
## Windows Server
Install tightVNC to get a VNC Client and also a VNC Server in one package for windows.
The server will be started automatically.
One important setting is `Require VNC authentication`, which allows you to define a password for viewing and interacting with the remote pc.
## Linux Client
Install Remmina with libvncserver to get client functionality.
`# pacman -S remmina libvncserver`
