I forgot that the command-line I was using was from a long time ago when I actually had tigervnc working properly over port 5901. When I connect using just -X then try to run evolution, it fails: $ ssh -X -i ~/.ssh/mykey-key.rsa -l gary remotehost -p 1024 [gary@fedora ~]$ evolution (evolution:3644): GLib-GIO-WARNING **: 09:41:05.182: Your application did not unregister from D-Bus before destruction. Consider using g_application_run(). If you want to do desktop sharing, then your friend needs to enable that > in the sharing section of the Gnome settings. Do you have more specifics on that? I've tried search for "sharing" and "remote" in my GNOME settings in Cinnamon and nothing is found. Then you would forward > port 3389 instead of 5901 and connect to localhost using rdp and the > credentials that your friend configures. > > My current preferred method is to use rustdesk.

It works fine with Wayland on the viewing side. > It appears rustdesk is only the client, correct? The server is built-in to Wayland as an RDP server, correct? Thanks, Alex
