Comments on How to install X2Goserver on Ubuntu 14.04 as an alternative for VNC

This document describes how to use X2Goserver as an alternative of VNC. I will install and configure X2Goserver on Ubuntu 14.04. X2Go enables us to access a graphical desktop of a computer over a low bandwidth (or high bandwidth) connection. X2Go is a Remote Desktop solution, which some vendors vaguely call Remote Control. This is not to be confused with Microsoft Remote Desktop Connection, which is a competing Remote Desktop solution and protocol. With X2Go, we can access Linux computers. The Linux computer we are accessing is the X2Go Server. The best part is that it supports sound transmission over remote connections.

OK its all installed. So how do I connect to a desktop on the other side of the world? The server is in Australia and the client is in Canada? I can not find a turorial on how to set up and allow connections of this nature.

Install the x2go client on your system in canada, enter ip address (or hostname), username and password of the target server in australia in the client and connect to it.
