Start VNC Server, refer to here (section [1]).
This example is based on that [bionic] user runs VNC server with Display number #1 (= 5901 port). |
[3] | Start Websockify with the user who run VNC server and proxy localhost:5901 on port 6080. |
bionic@dlp:~$ websockify -D --web=/usr/share/novnc/ --cert=/etc/ssl/novnc.pem 6080 localhost:5901 WebSocket server settings: - Listen on :6080 - Flash security policy server - Web server. Web root: /usr/share/novnc - SSL/TLS support - Backgrounding (daemon) |
