Vino (VNC server)


Vino is the VNC server for the GNOME desktop environment.
Configuration up to version 3.8.0 was via the vino-preferences program. This was removed from the packages after that version, since the gnome-control-center could then be used alternatively to control settings.
However, Vino is also useful in some other Linux distributions, which may not use GNOME desktop; and where gnome-control-center is not present: this leaves those distributions with no preference editor. For these distributions,, the alternative configuration manager tool dconf-editor is recommended. The VNC settings can then be accessed under org -> gnome -> desktop -> remote-access using that tool.
