Nick you would be correct, it does not support NLA, since Microsoft is retiring that protocol its best not to use it anyways.

TLS with a certificate will be secure. or you can install openssl 3.0.8.x enable FIPS140-2 will work for compliance requirements.

Yeah, I did a little digging on this, and it looks like RealVNC has pretty well made their solution a proprietary one - even if you start a RealVNC server with -Authentcation=None, the negotiation between client and server shows that the server supports several security types - 13, 133, 5, and 129, IIRC - none of which libvncclient support ([1]). I don't know if other VNC clients, like (Tight, Tiger, Ultra) are capable of connecting to RealVNC, but I'd be a bit surprised - RealVNC seems to be taking their product in the direction of TeamViewer, AnyDesk, NoMachine, etc., where they want you to subscribe to and broker through their cloud service, and aren't interested in actually providing a RFB-compatible server.

    I tried both the Xubuntu user credentials and the RVNC username
    plus the connection password.
    It does not work.
    I could install another VNC, but I can't remove the RVNC because
    it is already needed by a technician.


You might still be able to install another VNC server and use a different port number. But, hard to say how well (or poorly) multiple VNC servers will cooperate together.

    I installed xrdp following the reported guide.
    I then cloned an RDP connection to a Win10 PC already tested as
    working.
    I then changed the IP Address and using the credentials of a
    Xubuntu user, but when I try to connect I am immediately disconnected.
    The "Security mode" option must always be on NLA (Network Level
    Authentication)?


I do not believe that xrdp supports NLA - I think you need TLS.

    Should "Ignore server certificate" be On or Off?


For testing, you can turn it on so that the certificate validity isn't an issue - in Real Life, you should make sure you trust your server certificates.
