Hi,
I have an number of computers at home running Ubuntu 16.04 and am able to connect to all but one. I have enabled remote desktop and switched encryption setting using dconf. I can use VNC and connect to the same machine using non-localhost address and ssh into machine. However when I try to connect from windows using tightvnc (which is the viewer I use for other machines), I receive no message and yet can see that it is still running as a process. Tested connecting to other machines also, I get prompt and all is well. I am going to tee a log file for vnc server to try to understand. I disabled firewalls, and ip routes fine. Any other ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Mike
