Thanks for the great tutorial, helped me connect with a VNC client. One note to the viewers, if you are on the VM and shutdown like you did in the video it will stop the VM on Proxmox and you won't be able to get back in unless you restart it from within Proxmox.
Thanks for this. Providing the VNC arguments to QEMU makes sense, but it threw me for a loop that we connect to proxmox on port 5977 (i.e. the default VNC port of 5900, plus an offset which is what we put in the args). That's what I get when I don't RTFM. ;)
Thank you very much! At first it was not working for me because I tried to connect to the VM IP address instead of the Proxmox IP address (although you mentioned it in your video). Took me a bit to figure that out^^
thanks, I tried to use the documentation from proxmox directly they are mentioning to put a command in the monitors' tab which not worked, yours did however thanks! any way to have it encrypted as well as password protected?
@@virtualizeeverything The VM in question is a Windows 10 that is with the Display setting "Default", I believe it may be Internet latency because I did the test on Proxmox Server in production! :) Thanks!
i tried to connect using TightVNC viewer and I am getting a error. Something about connection can not be made because target machine actively refused it. ???
@xx mike I don't know if 7 changed things a lot did change. I did not see a change is the release Notes here is a link to proxmoxs setup on their wiki pve.proxmox.com/wiki/VNC_Client_Access
Have you tried this viewer with a decent server specs? I'm thinking of setting up a proxmox server with e5-2680v3 with rtx 2080 for educational purposes. I'm going to test gaming, video editing and 3d modeling. Would you recommend vnc client? If not, what are your recommendations?
if you are games spice might be better to use then VNC maybe or even RDP. I have never tester with gpu passed to vm i only get got a system with immou during the summer and have to tried it yet.
I am very much new to this but I really enjoy all the tinkering I've been doing with proxmox. I have two questions I'd like to ask you. First, in this video you mentioned that using VNC in this way is unencrypted. If I remember correctly, when using VNC in the proxmox web interface the connection is in fact encrypted. Is it possible to get an encrypted connection using an external VNC client? My apologies if this is a stupid question but like I mentioned, I am very new to this. Second question I'd like to ask is that I want to setup a Linux VM that I can access with any computer on my network. I would like to learn more about Linux but I do not want to make the commitment of installing it on any of my main computers right now. So my question is out of the remote desktop protocols you've mentioned throughout your channel (SPICE, RDP, VNC), which would you recommend for using for general desktop use (web browsing, youtube, general system tinkering) in your experience?

Really good and clear video, easy to follow and understand. Subscribed!
thank you
bro has me wanting x3 speed on youtube
beautifully concise, thank you!
You're very welcome!

Thank you for the comment. TH-cam can be a grate place when you dont want to RTFM :)

Glad it helped!
Thanks! Worked perfectly.
glad to help

I have not looked into doing that so I don't know, you could use OpenVPN to encrypt the packets between you computer and the server.
Thanks for sharing knowledge! I use Linux, I noticed that the mouse pointer synchronization is not the best... Does Mac and Windows have this problem?
I have found this to be true unless you have a gpu passed into the VM.

did you use the vm ip of the server ip?
@@virtualizeeverything Yes, I used the server IP. I am also using Promox v7, if that makes any difference.

@@virtualizeeverything still didn't work for me.
@@xxgg reboot your VM and try again

Your Welcome
is there a way to pass audio to vnc client?
by using spice and not vnc it works.
