I love your videos not only because of the knowledge, but also because you speak calmly while being fun and sarcastic. and since you asked, yes please give us a video on ssh tunelling 😉
I love Remmina and use it nearly every day. It's right in Add/Remove Software in Manjaro, so super easy to install. To receive Remote Desktop connections the server machine needs Windows Pro or better - no rdp into a Windows Home edition. I didn't know the shared folder feature - thank you very much for that useful trick!
Great video! Never heard of Remmina before, but it seems like it'd be super useful. I'd love a video on port forwarding and SSH tunneling (when things get better, of course).
Veronica, Belated Thanksgiving! This was a nice introduction to Remmina. I really enjoyed the previous one on KVM/QEMU and think you should dive deeper into KVM/QEMU, potentially provisioning them with Terraform, and orchestrating them with Nomad
The look 👀 is GREAT, but you really got me with anywho 🤠 This world needs more Nerdettes. You Go Girl! Looking forward to more content, and just ignore the haters, they’re just jealous 👍
This was perfect. The flow of the video was easy to keep up with. I actually needed a new program for remote desktop with Linux. I'm definitely gonna check out remmina. God bless you and Happy New Year!!!
Yup. I'll like to know a bit more about forwarding in ssh, used it in the past, never knew how it works. Didn´t knew Remminna. it is just in the repos for Gentoo and Arch, so cool.
@@VeronicaExplains and power question is can Remmina do the trick on remote machine, so human intervention is not necessary there, so one could reach machines with nop public ip, and no helping hand there
I believe Windows users will find Only Pro versions of Windows will allow RPD access from other systems. Alll windows versions support RDP as a client,, but only Pro versions support the RDP Server access as shown in this video. Linux can be accessed from Windows via RDP using something called xrdp. I suggest this be covered in a future video.
Very good point. Though not at all beginner friendly. I also use xrdp as the protocol to remote in. Yes there are some firewall tweaks that need to be made but once done I've found connectivity to be more reliable than vnc. Just my take.
I like the example of sharing a file. Who wouldn't want to share a neat, though random, picture of the NES? I came across this video before. I think it's how I found this channel. I was just starting to play around with VNC then. I did get it to partially work, and Remmina was a great recommendation for a viewer. My big issue was setting up the server side. Nothing seemed to work quite right. Sharing seems to have changed in Mint from what I understand. One of my machines was running MX with KDE. KDE has a nice sharing utility, but the password function was broken(of course). I finally got back to it and saw that people recommended vino for that on Xfce machines like my laptop. Finally got it all set up right and put vino on all the machines I needed it for. Back to Remmina, I see why you recommend it. It's great. The resolution scaling it does is so helpful. As was this video.
As a Gentoo user, I simply emerge it: emerge --ask remmina I also recommend the following uses: * crypt: add encryption support * cups: allow printing screenshot directly * nls: add language support for non-American * rdp: allow RDP protocol * ssh: enable SSH and SFTP integration and tunneling * vnc: allow VNC protocol * -telemetry: disable usage information transmission Here are additional uses depending on what you want: * zeroconf: allow automatic service discovery (mainly shared folders or printer) * gvnc: enable remote console for KVM * kwallet: enable KDE wallet integration * spice: enable remote console using spice protocol * x2go: enable x2go extensions to SSH protocol (require SSH)
I just discovered Remmina and I'm using it with a mac on my local network. Only wish I could blank the mac machine screen when I connect to it. Your videos are inspirational and educational, thank you.
In Ubuntu 21.10 I installed Remmina as deb and I use it mainly to connect to my FreeBSD backup server on a famous CPU; a 2003 Pentium 4 HT (1C2T; 3.0GHz; 2GB DDR) with 1.21 TB of leftover HDDs ( 2 IDE 3.5" and 2 SATA 2.5" HDDs). It is in use for ~1 hour/week.
Awesome video as usual. Remmina it's in almost all official repositories also. Another alternative use can be an ssh connection on the same machine, for running a systemd-nspawn container in an more confortable environment than a simple terminal window.
At my last job, I often used Windows' Remote Desktop, precisely because the remote machine would remain locked. I often needed to use the PC in my office for work that should not be viewed by others. But if I was not there, I could not know if anyone could see my screen. With Remote Desktop, that was not a problem. I got to do work, as if I was sitting in my office, with full access to their network from that PC, with no worries about anyone seeing my screen. For screen sharing, I use Quick Assist. It works great. But there are a few drawbacks: 1) It will work only between two Windows 10 (or higher) OS's. 2) The helper must have a Microsoft account. 3) The remote computer (needing the assistance) needs to be present to grant permission. This is fine for security reasons. But Quick Assist is useless if no one is at the remote machine. Remmina sounds great, especially for non Windows OS's.
Thank you! I recently did a new video about SSH in general, which may help illuminate the concept. That video is at ruclips.net/video/3FKsdbjzBcc/видео.html!
@@VeronicaExplains duh... I added the comment on the wrong RUclips. I did watch the SSH tuto with great interest and got it working for me. And that's where I meant to add this request for SSH tunneling.
Veronica, I do not know if someone else has mentioned it, if so sorry for the repeat. Ubuntu Desktop 20.04 installs Remmina with it. I have been a long time user of both Windows and Linux but linux was for my ham radio hobby. I find that my 5th generation I-7 processor in my game machine which runs Windows 10 cannot supportedly upgrade to Windows 11. Windows 10 according to Microsoft will only have 4 more years with support updates. So naturally I have moved my main machine over to Linux as I am not going to let Microsoft dictate when I have to buy a new computer and of course a Windows 11 license. Keep up the good videos!!!
Nice and helpful video. I have just connected to my Pi4, I needed to change the connection to VNC password to get in. I am sure that more videos on VNC, SSH and remote connection would be useful. I use Teamviewer to help family and friends, but it would be nice to try Remmina. I use Linux, but most of my calls for help are from Windows users, and I thought Windows was supposed to be intuitive.... :-/ Keep up the good work.
I'm glad you found it useful! I'm hoping to get out and do a follow-up about SSH and port forwarding once the COVID numbers drop a bit in my area. I don't have a consumer router of my own to play with, as most of my work is in the commercial-grade stuff at this point! My advice in the meantime to connect to a remote Windows user would be to see if they'll let you set up something simple like a Pi for the SSH connection inside the network. Then you tweak the router to allow port forwarding for the SSH connection from your home IP to the Pi. Then, the SSH tunnel will first connect to the Pi, and you can use Remmina over RDP or VNC to connect to the Windows devices (you'll have to install VNC first on the Windows devices, though).
I already know what Remmina is and how it works, but have a comment and a like for engagement algorithm bias regardless. (I don't use Arch btw) Edit: I didn't know GNOME had full integration for this though. I use KDE these days, so this one gets filed under "when it runs GNOME for some reason".
Thank you for this very informative video. I would be very interested to hear what you have to say about connecting to a windows remote using a different protocol than RDP (so that the person sitting at the remote can see what is going on on the screen). Currently I am able to use remmina to connect via RDP (over a VPN), but as you mentioned, the screen locks up for the user sitting at the remote machine.
Remmina is a great tool. But for my elderly clients I use anydesk. Because it's a lot easier to get working when you are talking to an eightysomething. Try explaining any of what Veronica just explained to someone who can barely use web mail and who think a desktop tower is a "hard drive" ". I also install anydesk when I visit in person. I do ask first, and if they refuse, I explain to them I will not be able to help them over the phone and I will have to visit when they need help. At my usual higher rate for onsite service. The number of people who wanted remote support exploded during the height pandemic. People were very grateful I didn't need to visit them. And so was I. I got to stay here with my trusty office cat.
Really like these videos. As it's cold, Flu and Covid season maybe every time you say 'Windows' we should all take a swig of something really alcoholic, you know to kill the germs.
I know the video is months old, but I just came across your content. I like what you're doing. Keep it up. $sudo pacman -S remmina does the job on Arch and Arch-based OS's. Of course, Flatpak, Snap and Appimage is also available, if you prefer.
Nice video. I'd like to see Remmina compared to third-partry tools like Anydesk and Teamviewer, among many others, from the standpoint of security and vulnerabilities. I use those tools a lot to help friends and distant relatives fix their machines. It would seem Remmina requires considerable knowledge on the part of the end user to get things set up correctly.
Where did you get that MECC tee shirt. That thing is likely older than you are. Anywho...It brought back a flood of nice memories of the great days the Silicon Prairie!
Came here in the hopes of getting some explanation on port forwarding with SSH so I can remote desktop into a server back in the US from Europe... 5:38 was a major let down. But at least this helped explain Remmina a little more and to point me in the direction of some forums.
I find that the Windows [super?] key presses are captured by the host machine and not passed on to the remote machine. This severely limits the usability of the remote computer through Remmina.
Great video, thank you! Unfortunately in Linux Mint, which I want to connect to, there is no Sharing-Entry in the settings. Therefore I can't make it work yet.
Hi, great video. I consider myself an expert in Linux, but I always have trouble with screen sharing. I am trying to screen share from my Linux Mint 20.3 Cinnamon on my laptop as a client to my desktop computer as the server, also running Mint 20.3. I installed remmina on the laptop, no problem. but I can't figure out how to get the mint VNC server to work. I tried x11vnc, but it won't connect. Any help would be apprciated
I don't know about that- it can be good but buggy with Linux in my experience, not to mention there's a lot of scams out there using these platforms. I tend to be skeptical, but if it's working for you or your business, that's good.
If I remember correctly the remote Windows machine must be a Win 10 (or 11) Pro. The Home version or the abominable Windows 10 S won't let you in, at least not out of the box.
Yes, remote desktop inbound is only available for Pro and higher license levels. Home only permits "request assistance" which is not the same, and is exclusively an interactive thing requiring someone to be using both computers.
@@ChrisHarringtonMinneapolis There's also a remote desktop plug-in for Chrome which functions a bit like Teamviewer. Many people have Chrome and if you need to give someone a hand remotely it might be a solution. I wouldn't necessarily rely on it if security is a top priority however. In that case I'd rather SSH and then use a non-cloud protocol like VNC or RDP.
Hi,are you still ok to make a video on the shh tunneling protocol??..i will be happy to watch that, thank you from Paris France for your videos and all of your works ;)
Yes! I did do a video on SSH in general recently (ruclips.net/video/3FKsdbjzBcc/видео.html), but I would like to do a follow-up with some descriptions of how this can work.
Veronica ... I'm quite familiar with RDP on Windows, but not much experience in Linux. Why did the RDP session in Remmina (11:19) not give you a colorful background like the background of your Mom's PC (7:21)? On Windows, I always have to set extra settings for the RDP config on the client side to tell it to increase screen size and bandwidth to make it look like it should. Are there similar settings in Remmina? Okay, love you video. Found out about you through the QEMU/KVM video. Thanks for educating us. Your channel will really grow. I think you could be the female version of Chris Titus, because he has sure taught me alot about Linux and made me less intimidated. And, at the moment, I'm trying to move somewhat from Windows to Linux, because Windows' Updates have screwed up my system multiple times. And, I'm getting quite tired of it.
Thank you! Hope the videos are helpful!! :) I believe when RDP is used in the default configuration, it strips out the desktop background. Not totally sure why it does that, but I think you can play with GPOs to manipulate that (I've never tried it myself). Not sure that is a Remmina thing, as it happens with my other remote access tools as well, including Microsoft Remote Desktop on my Mac. As far as screen size is concerned, Remmina handles that with the Toggle Dynamic Resolution Update, and I don't have to play with it at all on the Windows side. That might also be a feature of RDP, as it locks the target machine out of its session and starts a new one for the remote user. Off the top of my head, I don't remember if Microsoft Remote Desktop did that on my Mac.
@Veronica Explains : would you do a quick tutorial with Remmina on how to access a remote PC windows/linux that is not on the local network pls? would be appreciated 🙂

5:18 Make sure you enable compression using ssh tunnel as in most cases( depends on CPU capacity ) this will improve U/X for VNC connections.
`echo "Compression yes" >> ~/.ssh/config` however for each "bookmarked" host,

Many people have Chrome and if you need to give someone a hand remotely it might be a solution. I wouldn't necessarily rely on it if security is a top priority however. In that case I'd rather SSH and then use a non-cloud protocol like VNC or RDP.
Hi,are you still ok to make a video on the shh tunneling protocol??..i will be happy to watch that, thank you from Paris France for your videos and all of your works ;)
Yes! I did do a video on SSH in general recently (ruclips.net/video/3FKsdbjzBcc/видео.html), but I would like to do a follow-up with some descriptions of how this can work.
2:04 as an Artix Linux user btw, I can install Remmina with `sudo pacman -S remmina`
Yes, please, to the future Nerding-out for SSH keys. :)
I love it.. you are awesome
I'm learnin'!
FYI, the Home version of Windows does not have RDP enabled. You need Windows Pro or Windows Server,
Veronica ... I'm quite familiar with RDP on Windows, but not much experience in Linux. Why did the RDP session in Remmina (11:19) not give you a colorful background like the background of your Mom's PC (7:21)? On Windows, I always have to set extra settings for the RDP config on the client side to tell it to increase screen size and bandwidth to make it look like it should. Are there similar settings in Remmina? Okay, love you video. Found out about you through the QEMU/KVM video. Thanks for educating us. Your channel will really grow. I think you could be the female version of Chris Titus, because he has sure taught me alot about Linux and made me less intimidated. And, at the moment, I'm trying to move somewhat from Windows to Linux, because Windows' Updates have screwed up my system multiple times. And, I'm getting quite tired of it.
Thank you! Hope the videos are helpful!! :)
I believe when RDP is used in the default configuration, it strips out the desktop background. Not totally sure why it does that, but I think you can play with GPOs to manipulate that (I've never tried it myself). Not sure that is a Remmina thing, as it happens with my other remote access tools as well, including Microsoft Remote Desktop on my Mac. As far as screen size is concerned, Remmina handles that with the Toggle Dynamic Resolution Update, and I don't have to play with it at all on the Windows side. That might also be a feature of RDP, as it locks the target machine out of its session and starts a new one for the remote user. Off the top of my head, I don't remember if Microsoft Remote Desktop did that on my Mac.
6:21 Yes, please do.
You should do video on your video editing pipeline. It's simple, non-disturbing and just enough style. Idk how to edit like this on Linux.
@Veronica Explains : would you do a quick tutorial with Remmina on how to access a remote PC windows/linux that is not on the local network pls? would be appreciated 🙂
I think I installed Remmina right out of the repos. I run Manjaro, it has been so long since I installed it.
