Setting this environment variable manually, export XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/run/user/$(id -u), doesn’t fix this. NOTE: If you get the error, Failed to connect to bus: No such file or directory, then you need to set your XDG_RUNTIME_DIR environment variable properly (This is usually done automatically when you login via GUI). Reload systemd configurations to effect the changes made above. For example, you can adjust the screen size geometry.
cp /usr/lib/systemd/user/ ~/.config/systemd/userĪnd modify it to suite your settings. You can as well copy the /usr/lib/systemd/system/ file to the user systemd service directory created above.
Then when run, it only opens connection on localhost. ExecStart=/usr/bin/vncserver -localhost %i You can also restrict connection to the VNC server only through localhost (Loopback) interface by adding the keyword, -localhost to the ExecStart line. cat > ~/.config/systemd/user/ /dev/null 2>&1 || :'ĮxecStart=/usr/bin/vncserver %i -geometry 1912x988 Next, create a per user VNC systemd unit file under the home directory of every user you want to allow to connect to your remote desktop via VNC server.įor example, if you want to configure VNC server to provide a display for user, johndoe, create the VNC systemd configuration file for this user under /home/johndoe/.config/systemd/user.Īs a user in question and create the service unit directory above ~]$ whoami johndoe mkdir -p ~/.config/systemd/userĬreate user vnc service as follows. Once the system boots, login as the user with which you will be using for remote VNC desktop logins, in this case, johndoe. Reboot your CentOS 8 system to apply the changes. sed -i 's/ #WaylandEnable/ WaylandEnable/' /etc/gdm/nf Reboot the System For the VNC logins to work, you need to force the login screen to use Xorg server by uncommenting the line #WaylandEnable=false, on the /etc/gdm/nf configuration file. useradd johndoe passwd johndoe Disable Wayland and enable Xorg display server on CentOS 8īy default, CentOS 8 uses Wayland s the default X server. You can however create a user account for VNC logins. NOTE: The user must already be existing on the system. Once the installation completes, proceed to configure VNC server to define the users that are allowed to access remote desktop. Sudo dnf update sudo dnf install tigervnc-server Configure VNC Server on CentOS 8 Create VNC Connection User Account
