GNOME Remote Desktop como alternativa Linux a RealVNC
Actualizado el
Nuestra opinión
GNOME Remote Desktop is a solid, lightweight replacement for RealVNC if you only need to connect to a Linux host. It handles the core job of providing a VNC server for your current graphical session with minimal setup. However, it is not a drop-in replacement for a full RealVNC suite. It lacks a dedicated viewer application and advanced management features like headless server configuration or complex user permissions. For simple remote assistance or accessing your own desktop from another machine, it works well. If you rely on RealVNC’s viewer on Windows to connect to multiple diverse hosts or need enterprise-level control, you will still need a separate client like TigerVNC or Remmina.

GNOME Remote Desktop does not open or export RealVNC configuration files (.vnc or .ini). Since it is a system-integrated service rather than a standalone application with a saved connection list, there is no direct file import mechanism. You will need to manually re-enter connection details (IP, port, password) in your preferred VNC viewer on the client side.

- Install the gnome-remote-desktop package if not already present
- Open GNOME Settings and navigate to the Sharing section
- Enable Remote Desktop and set a strong password
- Note the displayed IP address and port (usually 5900)

Can I use GNOME Remote Desktop to connect to Windows machines?
No. GNOME Remote Desktop is a server component for Linux. To connect to Windows, you need a VNC server installed on the Windows side. GNOME Remote Desktop only allows other devices to connect to the Linux machine.
Does it work on a headless server without a monitor?
Not directly. It requires an active GNOME session. For headless use, you must configure a virtual display (like Xvfb) and start a session, which adds complexity compared to RealVNC’s headless server mode.
Is the connection secure by default?
It uses standard VNC encryption, which is weak. For secure access, you should tunnel the connection over SSH or use a VPN. The built-in password protection alone is not sufficient for public internet exposure.
