Remote access to a linux machine machine?
by ttlx01000 from LinuxQuestions.org on (#59TQV)
I'm an experienced windows user, however new to linux.
Trying to host a linux machine in virtualbox that I can remotely connect to. Everything I have tried .. fails.
I'm not sure why this is so hard? I have to be missing something obvious?
I build a linux machine in Virtualbox.
Try various website/youtube methods of enabling RDP (xrdp).
I get blank/black screens every time.
This is from ground up Linux Mint (Mate/xfce), Ubunutu, even Redhat ground up installs.
Does it just not work?
