Kubuntu 18.04 - How the heck do I change the IP address that "Desktop Sharing" is listening to?

How can I change that address? For me it's listing an IP address that I believe is a Vbox virtual nic. I want it to listen to an actual IP address reachable on my home network and I can't for the life of me figure out how to adjust it. Clickin on that little (i) icon just tells me

Surely there is a script or something I can edit?

The address is just a hint - you can use any address that can reach your computer. Desktop Sharing tries to guess your address from your network configuration, but does not always succeed in doing so. If your computer is behind a firewall it may have a different address or be unreachable for other computers. |
