x11vnc works great, I've got a couple hundred of them running on
xubuntu. If you want to start it automatically when you start your
computer, put the following into the file:
~/.config/autostart/x11vnc.desktop
[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Name=x11vnc
Exec=x11vnc -forever
Terminal=false
Hidden=false
For your Windows end I would use RealVNC's viewer, it is really nice
these days and available free from their website: http://realvnc.com.
Be sure to open port 5900 on your server computer's firewall.

I would like to setup a VNC server so that I can "share" my desktop
with a Windows system. Can anyone point me to a good guide on doing
this. It's apparently pretty easy in Ubuntu but not a feature of
Xubuntu. I've found old guides that are too out of date for 18.04 and
I've also found some guides for setting up VNC for remote computing
(which is not what I want to do).
